Hi all.
Took the big plunge today and purchased a HP VISTA desk-top PC. It's
sitting in the kitchen in a couple of big boxes and I'm planning to put it
together tomorrow with sighted assistance from my wife Pauline.
I have a copy of JAWS Pro 8 to install, though I am hoping to upgrade this
week to JAWS Pro 9, which will probably arrive within ten days.
So I've not done a thing to it thus far. I'm looking for some advice. For
example, is there anything that I should do to the settings prior to
installing JAWS. For example, I have since Windows 95 used the High
Contrast Number 2 display colour option as this is less harsh on my eyes.
Should I wait until JAWS has been installed before attempting to change
this?
I have a document titled something like Setting up XP to work with JAWS. I
have used the recommendations in this document for several years, to change
settings to maximise JAWS. I was wondering if there was perhaps a similar
document which would tell me how to enable JAWS to work at it's best in
VISTA?
So there is a couple of questions off the top of my head and perhaps there
is a more crucial modification that I need to make but don't yet know of it.
Perhaps JAWS will work with VISTA out of the box, so to speak, but given
past experience, I doubt it very much.
Looking forward to lots of advice.
Best wishes.
Andy.
