In addition to what Tristram  has advised, I
suggest you ask your friend if they have altered
any of the settings in the display properties
advanced section. I have come across this a
couple of times  with people wanting to really
customise their desktop settings. This could be
very tricky to resolve and in the two examples I
came across it was easier and quicker for me to
rebuild their desktops, but that was just a click
of a button on the work server.

Tristram Llewellyn recently said:-

When the colour is reported as "black on black" this quite often indicates a video interceptor problem of some sort. You will need to have a look in that area therefore to fix the problem. You may want to find out whether they have other access technology installed on the machine. You may also want to find out about the graphic card being used and whether the drivers have been properly installed for it or maybe if there is an update set you can get a hold of.

It is difficult to direct specifically what you may wish to do not having any other info to hand. I would however be tempted to try updating the video interceptor for JAWS. You can do so using this download to see if it will help.

Hi folks,

My friends pc is still having problems with the menus and also reading with the jaws curser, also the colour in both IE and some elements of outlook express are reporting as being black on black. I checked her display settings and they seem fine, anyone else experieinced this and know how to resolve it? Any help would be great, could this be a jaws issue and can you still repair jaws ? or do you have to re-install?

thanks


Alistair
