Dave, Not JAWS 10 but JAWS 9 will routinely (as much as once a day) stop reading list items with the arrow. For example tabbing from the OE folder list to the message list is supposed to read the message highlighted, but it does not. Only way I've found to quickly remedy is to kill JAWS and re-start.

Jaws will stop reading and behave as i've got a completely blank screen, icons will not be read arrowing through dialog boxes will say no selected items yet not read out what the items are. This initially occurred on two laptops one for sure when i would lower the screen to conserve battery power this has a wireless keyboard on it, and then raise it again, that seemed to start it. Now it is happening on a desktop machine as well. I'm not certain if it's offscreen model, focus, or something caused whenever video intensive apps load. Has anyone else seen this? Thanks.
