Hey, Guys!

Okay, here is the deal... Most of the time, my clipboard works fine, whether I use the Jaws clipboard, or the Windows Office clipboard. However, sometimes, at some point, my clipboard either stops giving me a confirmation that my clip has been copied by saying, "Copied to clipboard," or, sometimes, it will say something to the effect, that if I choose to press control C, or control X, this will overwrite the clipboard... yatta, yatta, yatta. We have all heard that last message, ever since the Jaws clipboard was introduced, so that is understandable.

I am, however, confused as to why the clipboard seems to either be full, or to be completely unusable, and, why it loses the ability to give me audio feedback that it has copied my data to the clipboard. I have found that the only way I can correct this, is to do a soft reboot. The problem seems to come after long computer usage, or long usage of the clipboard itself, or both... not sure which is the case.

That's the problem, here is the question... why does this happen... what can I do to correct it, without rebooting... and, is there a way to prevent it from happening? Okay, that was three questions, but you know what I mean!

   I look forward to your answers!  Thanks!
