Darrin,

Well you are one lucky son of a gun lol

Dave

Strange, I have Jaws window eyes and zoomtext installed on my computer
and everything works fine. I can even run all 3 programs simultaneously
and experience no crashes.

Hi Chris,
I would download Window Eyes and install it on my Jaws  active

computer.

But
the thing is, though neither company will admit it, A window Eyes

computer

won't work well if it detects jaws and a jaws computer won't work well

if

it
detects Window Eyes. Ask yourself, why after all this time won't the
Zoomtext focus follow the Jaws cursor? Answer? Jaws is produced not to
follow Zoomtext. It is produced to follow the Magic focus. In short,

Its

all
about money and the blind guy... Well ... Tough. If you have Jaws on

your

computer you will not be able to install window eyes easily. You will
probably have to consult the window eyes team to get it working

properly.

This is part and parcel of the whole program of difficulties when you

are

offered to download one or other of the three leading access

softwares.

Jaws, Window Eyes and Zoomtext. If you are a jaws user, download

Window

Eyes
and see what happens. Ditto if you are a Window Eyes user and you

download

Jaws. I'll guarantee you will need to consult the support team or
re-format
your computer. I've just been asked to pay 281 pounds for an upgrade

from

Jaws 7.1 to Jaws 9.0 and I think this is a bit steep. I've just paid

$400

to
go from XP Home Canadian to Xp Pro Uk and then over 100 pounds to go

from

Jaws 6x to 7.1 which didn't work. Now only a few months later they

want

280
pounds to go from 7.1 through 8.0 wich was broken but Freedom

scientific

refused to fix, to 9.0 which folks are telling me is a blasted waste

of

time? How long are we just going to sit on our swivel chairs and put

up

with
this crap. A simple upgrade from Jaws 7.1 to 9.0 at 281 pounds is

almost

half the price of Window Eyes which I've heard is catching up! Sure I

can

even torrent a pirated copy of Jaws 8.0 on the pirate bay, but I'm not



sure
its worth the bother.

Peter
