Did you try unloading and reloading jaws? Maybe it was just a speech lockup.
I have an XP system running jaws 5.10, which isn't much different from 5.0, 
and it is very jerky -- sometimes very responsive, sometimes stops for a 
half minute or so and is generally sluggish.
I have tried virus scans, defrags, other tuning, but nothing helps.
Anyway, aren't computers fun????;)
