You might want to explain all that to FS as well. This goes to show that a bad or incomplete install of something else can cause problems later on down the road. This sounds like you might have to uninstall Office before you can reinstall Jaws. But the FS people will know more about those details than I do. I have MS Office at work, but I think it got installed before Jaws did. Anyway, good luck. ----- Original Message ----- From: bjones To: jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Sunday, February 17, 2008 8:15 AM Subject: RE: help with installation Steve Well thank you for responding. I will have to call FS because I’ve had someone look it up and she can’t find it anywhere. Someone unfamiliar with screen readers just installed Office XP on my system but I don’t think it was a complete install because of how it is working and how Jaws was working with it,the reason I tried to reinstall it so will be calling ASAP.

If no one else on the list has any suggestions, I'd suggest calling Freedom Scientific technical support and telling them the error code you got when you tried to re-install Jaws 8. Be sure to give them your Jaws serial number. That error code will give them a clue as to what went wrong and it might provide an answer as to how to correct it. Sorry I can't be of more help. Please let us know what happened. ----- Original Message ----- From: bjones To: Jfw@Freelists. Org Sent: Saturday, February 16, 2008 2:41 PM Subject: help with installation Hope someone can help.
