Hi Gemma,

Are you on the JAWS-UK list?  Quite a few people there have
migrated to Vista, and as far as I can tell, don't seem to
be having the sort of problem you describe.

George.

Subject: [access-uk] Help Please! Jaws won't work on new
computer with Vista

Hi, I'm just hoping somebody will be able to offer some
advice. I've been 
using a lap top with XP on it for a long time, and I use
Jaws. But that 
machine has basically had it, so we bought a new one with
Vista. I 
understand that all machines now come with Vista as standard
and a few 
people had told me it would work more or less ok with Jaws,
so we put on the 
new machine, down loaded a Jaws demo to see how it was, but
we've never 
managed to get it working properly.
Now I doubt that this is to do with a clash with Vista as
such, but it seems 
Jaws is clashing with some software on that machine, because
although Jaws 
is set to come on automatically at start up, it never does.
And usually, 
though not always, there is a message on the screen at start
up which says 
"Toshiba flash card failed to initialise" (the lap top is
Toshiba). What 
usually happens sometime while my partner's using the
machine is that Jaws 
will suddenly decide to come on, for reasons best known to
itself!
So here we are with this lap top which I just can't use!
I thought I'd ask here in case the error message meant
anything to somebody 
here who knows about these things!
With best wishes
Gemma
