And this is what will happen when I upgrade the RAM from 1GB to 2GB on my netbook. This is an example of "internal" signature changes.

I don't know where you get the idea that changing hardware shouldn't have an effect on activation, FS is upfront that activation is based on a computer hardware signature, if you change the (internal) hardware that signature changes and jaws thinks it is running on a different computer. I will admit that I am somewhat surprised that a CD drive contributes to that signature, but I am not at all surprised that video cards do (I've changed both in my current computer and had to re-activate each time). This is what the reset activation count bit on the fsactive site is for.

Basicly I went to my sisters last for christmas day, and went on my sisters's boyfriend's y thi and connected to the internet with Jaws on this laptop running Vista. I got updates for the computer and thought I'd may as well install them since for christmas I got wireless y thi for the internet. by the way this wasn't mine it was my sisters boyfriends. But basicly getting to the point I did a check for updates for Jaws and I remember sometime back there were updates for Jaws 9.0 which I have avadable for me to download. But the thing I'm not sure about is if I downloaded the update would I be back in 40 minute mode with Jaws and have to do something or would it just be the same as normal and so there for I wouldn't need to do anything so it would just have the latest build. If I would have to do anything else then I won't bover don't ask me why because its personal. Just want to basicly know that if I installed the update would that be it or is there a catch. smiles. I hope u r all having a good christmas! And have a great boxing day! Many Thanks I hope this is clear as crystal not mud lol. Daniel
