I tried using Narrator and there is no comparison. Why would you want to use it if you don't have to? It didn't really work that well when I tried using it. This was well worth the effort it took to get it right.

I'd want to start JAWS from the login screen before Narator, but I know what you're saying.

You wouldn't want to be able to start JAWS from the login screen. If you could, the whole point of the security of the login screen would be compromised.

Maybe because Windows considers it a basic Windows utility universally accessible. Try accessing Word. But at any rate, since your desktop and hot keys are still as yet not defined for Windows in the login screen, it's no surprise that it wouldn't work there.
