Ian,
This may be no use at all but in recent times, the only things which have
caused me problems with Jaws and word were:
When I had my computer set to detect another Bluetooth device and, when I
was listening to the radio via the internet whilst working.
Also in the distant past I did have a glitch with word which corrected
itself after a reinstallation of word, just a thought.
Hope you manage to sort it out.
Claire.
