One last question.  Windows 7, 32-bit.  FSX + acceleration, FSUIPC
4.80.  After running FSX, Jaws seems to have trouble reading things
correctly.  For instance, instead of reading what's in my system tray
dialog box (after pressing jaws key + f11), it simply says "no
selected item" as I arrow through.  Also, it will no longer read text
within a text editor.  Other windows dialogs are affected as well.
The only way that I seem to be able to fix this is to restart the PC
completely.  Any ideas how to fix this?  I tried setting all graphics
to 0 in FSX, thinking that might be the issue, but no change in JFW
behavior.  It's like somehow FSX screws with JFW's ability to read the
display correctly.  Unloading and reloading JFW did not help either.
I also tried telling the PC to sleep, then waking it, but also to no
avail.  Surely there has to be some way to fix this; I shouldn't have
to restart my PC every time I close FSX just to get Jaws to read
correctly.  I would think that after FSX is closed, any display
modifications affecting JFW would revert anyway, back to what the
settings were prior to launching the simulator.
