I'm running XP Pro. I don't know if itunes requires any particular library, I only hit a link to install it. Another thing is that my system doesn't appear to time out and go on standby any longer. It used to go on standby if I left it more than 15 or 20 minutes. Now it stays up all night without ever going on standby, and if I put it in standby manually it dies before it resumes. How do I identify if my itunes installation needs that .net library? I have several versions of .net installed already. Thanks. --le ----- Original Message ----- From: "D!J!X!" <megamansuperior@xxxxxxxxxxx> To: <programmingblind@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Saturday, April 11, 2009 2:07 AM Subject: RE: dying a million deaths What os are you running? On windows vista, when installing a program called sound forge (sound editor), vista would refuse to go on stand by (sleep), same happened on xp sometimes. I discovered it was something to do with the net 1.1 libraries or something which the program requires. After installing an updated version of the .net 101 )sp1) it wouldn't work. If I uninstalled it, it work fine. Does itunes use any sort of external libraries such as net or visual c++? One time I had problems with jaws crashing as well, and after reinstalling the visual c++ runtime it all worked fine...

Maybe someone else has had a similar problem and can help me troubleshoot. I have made several changes over the past few days -- I installed jaws 10.0.1142, upgraded from 10.0.592 or something like that. I installed a brailiant 80 braille display which is working, so well in fact that it won't stop working even when I tell jaws not to use a display. I installed itunes and emusic downloader, which is probably not the problem unless it contained malware, as I don't use it except when I download music. Ok, those are the changes to my system. I typically leave the computer on but in standby mode when I'm away, which has always worked before, for indefinite periods of time. But now when I go into standby, when I return after a short absence, I have the login screen, and once I'm logged on, I have a fatal error report to send to Microsoft. I usually don't send it, but tonight I did and Microsoft says it is the result of a failure in a driver, device or related software, and it could not give me any more information. (Thank you Microsoft...*frowny*) The brailliant display drivers have always worked fine on my other computers. The other software is new. Does anyone have an idea what the problem could be? Thanks in advance! And by the way, how do I turn off braille in jaws? When I go to the braille options I select no-display, which I thought meant no braille. But as I said it keeps operating the display, even if I unload and reload jaws.
