We had loss of Jaws after a recently downloading an update on our daughters
laptop (a windows optional
upgrade labelled IDT-Audio-IDT High Definition Audio Codec). She turned
on the laptop and visually the Jaws icon was in the system tray but we had
no speech. At desktop the audio icon in the system tray showed "no audio
output device is installed". We were given the helpful advice from a list
member to "try rolling back to the previous driver and see if this helps".
It did! All speech was restored. Don't know whether this will be of help
to you, probably a different issue, but it was a first for us and luckily
the solution worked.
Kind Regards

The computer sounds are there, but jaws is not. It comes up fine, on the
screen. That is, sighted people can see it, but I just can't hear it. As
for running jaws first, i have that disabled, so it won't come up when my
daughter starts it up.

Do you have any sounds coming out of the speakers?
Maybe the volume has been muted.

Hi folks. I've encountered a very weird problem with jaws. I'be been using
jaws version 8.0 on my daughter's computer, but for some reason, now, when
it comes up, no speech at all. I've looked at the settings, and as far as I
can tell, it seems to be right. I've tried reinstalling 8.0, but it won't
let me do that, giving me a message asking for my authorization disk. The
authorization is up to date on there. Anyone ever had such a problem as
this?
