I think there is a jaws pro version which allows you to use it on xp 
professional and earlier versions of windows.

  Sounds like your system is too old. I'm sorry but that's the way it is. =
  Your apps are probably too old either.=20
  I'm curious as to why you upgraded to JFW 6.1? If you're happy using =
  older software why not stick to a version of JFW that works with it?=20
  As for FS not supporting older apps/systems, I bet if you explain the =
  problem that you told them you had a windows 98 se machine were led to =
  believe that JFW 6.1 would work with your older apps and asked for a =
  refund, you'd probably get it.=20
  Of course too, it depends on how much time has past, how well you can =
  state your case (clearly and rationally) and if you remember who you =
  spoke to that gave you the misinformation.=20

  Using Win 98 c MS Word in office 97 will not open. It states this =

  6.1. Was able to get Excel to work in Version 6.0 after reinstalling it. =

  Version 6.1 will do the same, but not as often. Computer will freeze =
