Hi Alvin,
In this case, I have to contradict what FS Tech Support said: JAWS works
with Sleep mode (and even in Hibernation mode). When you use these
functions, JAWS will still be there when you resume your computer (wake it
up). (This data comes from repeated statistical study of my own laptop
running Vista Ultimate.)
Cheers,
Joseph P.S. Sorry for harsh comments.

but tech support from freedom scientific told me that it is not recommended
to use sleep mode when using jaws.
