Kirsten, It's very helpful that you've been reporting what became of the problems you've experienced these last two days. I believe there's a list rule against posting simply "Thanks," but information paired with a "Thanks" is useful for everyone. It helps us see what works and what doesn't. Glad you caught the critical update problem. You aren't the first to experience it with one of these updates. -----Original Message----- From: jfw-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:jfw-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Kirsten Edmondson Sent: Sunday, December 19, 2010 10:27 AM To: jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: The recent j12 update has broken my computer! Thanks for the repair info, I will try and keep that for future reference! Have got the computer working again - it was a w7 error which seems to have been caused by a 'critical update' which it did after the jaws installation - unrelated, just coincidental - which I didn't know about. Thanks again.

This morning when I switched my computer on, it is knackered! Jaws starts; I can log in but sometimes I don't even get to the little windows 7 music and sometimes I get slightly further than that before the computer restarts itself. This is a cycle, it happens continually! I am fairly certain it's all related to yesterday's update and potentially the computer crash happens when jaws is loading the second time as it does after the log-in process to windows. > I am totally stuck because I can't uninstall the update because the computer won't stay on but without uninstalling it this problem will continue! > If anyone has any ideas, I'd appreciate receiving them! > Thanks. > a desperate Kirsten. > > > Sent from my iPhone-- > JFW related links: > JFW homepage: http://www.freedomscientific.com/ Scripting mailing > list: http://lists.the-jdh.com/listinfo.cgi/scriptography-the-jdh.com > JFW List instructions: > To post a message to the list, send it to jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx To > unsubscribe from this mailing list, send a message to jfw-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the word unsubscribe in the subject line. > Archives located at: //www.freelists.org/archives/jfw > Alternative archives located at: > http://n2.nabble.com/JAWS-for-Windows-f2145279.html > > If you have any concerns about the list, post received from the list, or the way the list is being run, do not post them to the list.
