Thanks, Jim, I thought MSAA was something screen readers used. Why would Winamp 
use it? Or are you talking about something different?

  No it is a winamp problem and the way they are handling MSAA.

  I wonder  if it's a Jaws thing  or  a windows  problem? If  winamp  runs  
without  Jaws, It would  have to be  a Jaws  or windows  problem! Good luck 
finding  that out! It sounds  like  something  is corrupt! Why not  install  
the latest  version  of winamp  and put it into a folder of its own. run it 
without  Jaws  and see if that version is a problem? If that's the case  you 
may have to repair  Jaws  and  possibly  windows. Just a suggestion. good  
luck!

    Hello Listers,

     

    A friend of mine with partial vision is helping someone with their PC. He 
installed Windows XP, SP3, upgraded to the latest JAWS, version 9.0.2169 I 
think it is, and Winamp 5.5.41. Now, when he goes into the Local Media section 
of the Media Library and either single or double clicks on a file that Winamp 
is pointing to, he gets that "Winamp has encountered a problem and needs to 
close." message. He says that this is now happening with earlier versions of 
Winamp, at least back to version 5.53. He says that when JAWS isn't running, 
Winamp works just fine.

     

    Anyone heard of this kind of behavior before? Unfortunately, running Winamp 
without JAWS is not a viable option for the person  who owns the computer 
because she has no vision.

     

    Thanks for any suggestions.

     

    Evan
