Message Hi Carol, Surely you mean an external 3.5 inch drive?

  Colin,

  Once the new JAWS authorization is out and you can do this online you'll 
probably be OK but, until then, I guess it's borrow an external hard drive or 
get one, or run JAWS without authorization.  That will mean rebooting every 40 
minutes though.

     Hi Andrew,

    Thanks for that, guessed it wouldn't be that simple; after all it's JAWS. 
OK I can install the licence onto the laptop no problem, The difficulties 
arrive with the authorisation process. I've only got the auth keys on a floppy, 
and obviously the laptop has no 3.5 inch drive.

    What are the solutions with this?

      Hi,

      With JFW no - you specificly have to remove auth key and put it on new 
machine, or if you use both machines just install on new machine.  c:\jaws50 
can be copied over after successful installation of Jaws onto new machine, but 
you need to go through installation as it does things to registry.

      Andrew.

      Hi,

      I've just inherited a Pentium 4 laptop. Not sure of the rest of the spec 
because it won't arrive till Monday.

      What I want to know is can I use the data transfer wizard to transfer 
from an old Desktop running win200 and JFW 4.51  to my laptop running XP Pro? 
In particular, can I transfer the Jfw 4.51 onto the lap top in this manner 
without having to faf about with removing it first from the desktop saving the 
auth key, reinstalling it onto the laptop and reauthorising it?

      Thanks for anything on this

      Colin
