Hi Steve, And, even though its not as reliable, NVDA is capable of working well under a 64 bit OS as well.

So I get most of the advantages and still keep my Supernova. I did hear that one of the latest version of either Jaws or Window Eyes is supposed to be compatible with 64 bit systems but after the initial announcement nothing more was forth-coming.

Went to buy a new pc last week but discovered in the nick of time the one I had chosen had a 64byt operating system, am I correct in thinking no screen reader will currently work with this system? The strange and frightening thing is I didn't think to ask, nor did the sales person inform me, it was pure chance I decided to ask a techie person who I know. best wishes Alistair __________ NOD32 3688 (20081212) Information __________ This message was checked by NOD32 antivirus system. http://www.eset.com -- -- Check out my radio and TeamTalk server! http://www.jls-radio.com -- James Scholes E-mail: james@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx MSN/Windows Live Messenger: jamesscholes@xxxxxxx AIM: JamesScholes000 Skype: james.scholes Website: http://www.jamesscholes.com Blog: http://www.jamesscholes.com/blog Twitter: http://www.twitter.com/jamesscholes Find me on Facebook!
