Hi Flor
I did press the insert Z keystroke and the virtual curser is on. I also
checked in the settings centre and the virtual curser is on by default.
Paul, I'll try running the video intercept thing you sent me to see if that
helps. I had the latest version of JAWS 12 on there as of Sunday but I see
today another version is now available which I will put on next time I use
the PC.
It is Windows 7 on there which is quite new to me but I'll see if I can set
it to classic view. I much prefer Windows XP to be honest.
Aedan, I really hope it isn't the display chain driver you referred to as
that sounds quite nasty. I really don't want to be responsible for wrecking
my dad's computer.
Thanks for all your suggestions.
Ulla

Ulla,
When you press insert+6 in Internet Explorer, what does JAWS say? That
it's in Internet Explorer only is probably notable. Did you try pressing
the tab key while in Internet Explorer. Press Insert+z, to toggle the
virtual cursor. perhaps the virtual cursor, somehow or other, in internet
Explorer is off by default. It should be on.

Hi All
I wonder if anyone can help me? A few months ago I installed JAWS 12 onto
my parents PC so I could use the internet when I am visiting them. All was
well until this weekend. JAWS has literally stopped working with internet
explorer and I just can't understand why. When I load internet explorer
JAWS will read the title of the webpage and nothing else.
The arrow keys don't work and it says there are no links. If I try to use
any of the keystrokes like insert f6 the headings list won't appear and it
says no headings. No buttons or form fields can be found. If I press the
alt key I can look at the file, edit view menus etc but I just can't
navigate any webpages.
I have tried unloading and reloading JAWS, rebooting the PC, refreshing
the webpage and still no luck. Internet explorer 8 is the version on the
PC.
All other applications are working perfectly with JAWS. I've never come
across this problem before.
If anyone can shed any light or help me out I would be really grateful as
this is so frustrating.
Thanks in advance.
Ulla
