Hi Jane, I'm not Tristram, but as it's after working hours..... allow me to clarify:- The following operating Systems will work with JAWS Standard Version 6, for which you say you have the discs. Windows 95 Windows 98 Windows 98SE Windows Millennium Windows XP Home Edition. The following Operating Systems require the more expensive PROFESSIONAL version of JAWS. Windows NT Windows 2000 Windows XP Professional Edition. If you are intending buying a new computer, then unless there is very good reason to, you would be best to go for Windows XP Home Edition.
