Well, my Jaws 8 doesn't do that when I boot up, but whereas for a couple of
months it landed me on the first icon on my desktop and said only something
like "List view My Documents 1 of 33" or whatever, and I could arrow around
the desktop icons if I felt like it at that point (I confess that I usually
just launch something with a hotkey), now when I boot up I can see I'm on
the Desktop screen, but I'm not on a Desktop icon. I have to tab around from
the Start button to the task bar to the system tray to finally hear
"desktop." This is one quirky version of Jaws. Yes, I've repaired it, I've
updated it so that it's absolutely current, and still it does all sorts of
weird stuff like this. Go figure. Every day, at some point, I unload it and
launch Jaws 7 so I can function without all these hassles.
Sorry for the interruption. Just had to vent for a minute. I really don't
care for Jaws 8. But this too, shall pass, I tell myself.

Mine now says "English/United States" without announcing "Setting keyboard
layout to "
I was also wondering what this is about.

Hi
Since the last few updates, on switching on my PC and arriving at the
desktop, Jaws announces ,(Setting keyboard layout to English/United States).
Any ideas why it should start doing this, I have not altered anything. Has
anybody else noticed it?
Regards
Graham
