Hi George,

Not totally correct. Windows 7 doesn't reject JAWS as such, it just thinks its 
a driver of some sort. During the JFW instalation, keep alt+tabbing away from 
the JAWS install windows, you'll see a Windows Security dialog. Its pretty 
straight forward once you've found that.

Hi Terry,

 

JAWS won't see Windows 7 as a recognised operating system, hence the
rejection.

 

However a number of people in the USA have reported that if you have
JAWS 10 installed first on XP or Vista, and THEN apply the Windows 7
beta, JAWS will run in demo mode.

 

Furthermore, for a Windows Beta, it would appear that JAWS works
remarkable well.

 

George.

Hi all

 

Can anyone shed any light as to why I can't install jfw v10 on the
windows 7 beta.

 

I just keep getting an error message, saying it can't run.  This
happens virtually as soon as I click on the install programme.

 

I've changed the settings in user accounts, up to 100%, I've given
myself administer rights.  I tried installing another programme with
no problems.

 

Any help appreciated.

 

Terry
