Well, they aren't so hence why I'm asking. It doesn't detect anything on a
webpage, although putting a cursor over text in the webpage will read it off
but Insert+F7 and other functions won't do anything.

Don't know why you're doing things in stages, but any version of Jaws from
5.1 on should work with XP and IE6.

Hello,

 

I am currently working with an individual who uses JAWS and have been in the
process of helping

Him  maintain and upgrade his computer's software including JAWS. I have
been able to upgrade

Him successfully from 4.5 to 5.1 but any attempts to upgrade have caused a
number of problems. I am presently attempting to upgrade to JAWS 6 (as a
step to upgrading even further) and while I can get it to read menus, files,
etc it won't work with Internet Explorer  6 (except to read the top menus
but not anything on the webpages) and he reports he has problems with it
working in Microsoft Word (Office 2000 I think). He currently uses Windows
XP, recently upgraded to Service Pack 3. I have a found suggestions
including repairing the installation and turning off MSAA (which I have done
before) but still no success. Any suggestions, other then contacting
technical support?
