Hi Norma,

I am using Media Center with JFW 7.0 Pro on a HP desktop system.  For the
most part things are going great, and I am thrilled with my new computer.
However, I can not figure out how to use the Media Center functions for TV,
etc.  When I click on Media Center, very little is read out loud.  I can't
navigate the screen no matter what I've tried.  I hear things like "next",
and have tried to click on that.  However, clicking on such links leads me
to more of the same__no reading of the screen.  I had hoped to get some
sighted help with this, but that isn't readily available so can you help?

Katrina

Hi Jeanette, The Media Center functions work with Jaws Pro.  I am able to
look through the program guide, record while watching, record up to 14 days
in the future, etc.  We do not have the desktop MC, so my biggest hurdle has
been getting used to using Jaws with the laptop keyboard layout.  If one
buys the MC which fits into a rack stereo, the wireless keyboard is like
that of a laptop, meaning there is no seperate number pad.  But, aside from
this learning curve, so far I'm enjoying the Media Center.  See ya, Norma
