I'll probably give Win 7 ago that way I can use v9 without having to reboot every 40 minutes.


Can you just buy the full version when it comes out and install over-the-top of Win Vista, and win 7 beta or just unlock it and download the updates that'll fix the bugs?

Kinda like a Service Pack?

The full install over the lot seems tad messy to say the least for the System 32 folder and stray dll's. If I was to go the route of installing what is essentially the third OS ontop.

Thanks for the useful info.

Ar i see. Well you've got no choice then unless you can afford a licence
when version 10 comes out.

I am using it at the moment but it's only on 40 minute demo.

Hmm, why don't you give the public beta of JAWS 10 a go?

Hi folks,

After I got back home with my PC and attempted to install JFW v9 on it I
discovered it's 64bit Vista!

There's know way I know to revert this to a 32 bit platform, upgrading
from
32 to 64 bit is possible but not the other way?

Now I'm not willing to go out and buy a 32 bit OS, then go to the hassle
of
writing an unattend file for it.  I believe this is going backwards, 64
bit
does have allot of technical advantages.

Trouble is screenreader support...

I see JFW 10 has a public beta for 64 bit and Win Eyes v7.1 when released
will include support.  I have also gathered that System Access currently
supports 64 bit.  Trouble is I hate Dectalk, and dont' find Neo Speech or
the like utiliterian enough for my needs.  I'm an Elaquince fan boy,
rightly
or wrongly, but there it is.

Is this the way it currently stands and can anyone offer me an insentive
to
downgrade, as that's what I see it being to a 32 bit platform?

Really annoyed as having to reboot my new quad core every 40 minutes
because
I can't see the screen and am forced to use adaptive technology!

Cheers,
Dj Paddy
