Hi Joseph,
Thanks for explaining that... I assumed there was some technical explanation,
so thanks for satisfying my curiosity on that front.
Best,
Kim

Hi Kim and others,
This is due to JAWS checking operating system descriptors under Windows. If it
detects that you are running a version of JAWS Standard under a Pro version of
JAWS, then it will refuse to run it due to operating system descriptors.
Cheers,
Joseph P.S. Hope I got the tech side correct here. Let me know if I was wrong.

Hi Laura,
I just went through the updating process last month when I got my new computer
which runs XP pro. To update the Jaws license key so that the computer will
run XP Pro cost me $200. As for why Jaws can't run on pro editions without
this extra cost... I wish I knew. If anyone does know, I, too, would be
curious!
Hope that helps, Laura.
Best,
Kim

Hi listers,
I am using Jaws for windows on my machine at home using XP home addition.
How much would it cost to upgrade so that it can run on XP pro? Why can't jaws
work on XP pro when having jaws for windows on my machine that has XP home?
