Hi all,
As I said in my last message, I am very impressed with this screen reader.
It emulates some of the more common JAWS key strokes and that makes it very
comfortable for me to use as a JAWS user.
One serious drawback emerged later on after I had closed the "Access to Go":
my PC slowed down considerably. Many keystrokes failed to function and it
was necessary to restart my computer to regain control.
As Skype was also open, I cannot be sure that the problem was caused by the
screen reader alone. I find that Skype is a very selfish memory user and
impacts heavily on system resources.
I will try the screen reader again without loading Skype and see how the
system survives!
All the best,
Cearbhall

I'm glad you agree! I think that this should be excepted in the light that
it's offered. Not as the primary screen reader for ones computer.
NVDA is marketed at that area of screen reading but instead, it is marketed
as a temporary solution for situations where you do not have access to your
required software but need to access a system temporarily.
