Chris, Not the same problem, but when I installed Jaws 6.0, I ran the merge utility because I didn't know the file path for installing scripts. My Alva Braille display went haywire on me, and I couldn't figure out why. When I got the file path, I completely uninstalled 6, reinstalled, and did the scripts manually, no merge. Everything behaved beautifully after that. It's frustrating when you find it is only your system acting lunatic, so hope you can get it straightened out.
