I found that in my case, I had to both tell jaws what the new display was
and
install the drivers which came with my unit. Then when it didn't work I did
the
idiot thing and started pressing buttons, upon doing that something
connected
and it installed. On my laptop however, I could just install the drivers by
telling jaws to add new display and not running the cd. Does anyone know
how to
find out what version of the drivers you are using currently? On their
download
page it lists version numbers. Sean
