hi, sorry but this does not sound to me like a jaws issue it sounds to
me like you are having a conflict between two or more programs that
manifests it self a little worse when jaws is running.
disable any screen saver or active desktop you may have running. then
go threw with ms config and see witch start up item is causing the
problem. I am using jaws 7 here with no problems what so ever.

Subject: Jaws 7 is A Piggy
Hey there folks I wonder what Freedom Scientific is doing! I have Jaws
6.2 and Jaws 7 on my computer. I also have Window Eyes on here. Now Jaws
7 has been giving me a headache and was looking around to see if I could
find out why. Both Window Eyes and Jaws 6.2 show that my CPU Usage is at
100%. Now if I have Jaws 7 running my CPU usage is at 84%. Jaws 7 is
being a piggy and using memory for doing nothing but making the computer
run slower. The CPU usage should run at 100% or as close to possible at
that as it can.
Does anyone have any idea why it is necessary for Jaws 7 to tie up
computer usage? I can't think of one good reason to do that. I have 512
Dual Data ram and windows XP Home with service pack 2. I also have all
windows updates.
The tie up ram causes such things as IE to freeze, windows explorer to
have to close, plus other strange things to happen.
Oh by the way I do believe Jaws 7 even thinks it knows when I want to
check my email! Or at least it thinks it does because the log on screen
comes up when I am not even at the computer without anything but what is
at start up running.
One other thing I have noticed is that in Jaws 7 the Jaws program starts
right when windows does rather than like in earlier versions where the
anti virus and or firewall plus other programs at start up started
first.
JAWS uses the symbol of a shark but maybe that should be changed if it
is going to be hogging memory. Bet you know what symbol I am thinking
about!
