Hi Susan, It's Phil again. I'm sorry if my suggestion caused you so much trouble. The settings which Colin recommended are accomplished as follows: 1. press JawsKey+j to place you in the Jaws window. Note: The JawsKey is the insert key on a desktop keyboard and, I think, caps lock on the laptop keyboard. 2. You should land on "Options". Press enter. 3. You should now be on "Basics". Again, press enter. 4. Tab twice to land on "Automatically start Jaws" and ensure that this box is checked. 5. If you want to run Jaws from the system tray, tab again and ensure that "Run Jaws from system tray" is checked. 6. Tab to OK and press enter. The next time you reboot the pc Jaws will start automatically and start speaking shortly after the login screen appears. Regards, Phil Medway. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Susan" <susan.beggs@xxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <jaws-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Saturday, April 23, 2005 12:05 PM Subject: [jaws-uk] Re: log in page hi Colin at the moment we are desperate and will try any thing, could you tell me how to perform those two tasks you mentioned. susan ----- Original Message ----- From: "Colin Baxter" <C.R.Baxter@xxxxxxxxxx> To: <jaws-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Friday, April 22, 2005 3:00 PM Subject: [jaws-uk] Re: log in page Hi Susan, You need to check 'Automatically run Jaws'. I also check 'Run Jaws from System Tray', though I don't think this should make any difference as far as your problem is concerned. Good luck Colin -----Original Message----- From: jaws-uk-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:jaws-uk-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx]On Behalf Of Susan Sent: 22 April 2005 14:09 To: jaws-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [jaws-uk] Re: log in page hi colin i'm sorry, but maybe i didn't explain myself very well, joe and i both have our own computers, and it is on behalf of joe that i mailed the list. do you know just what some of these boxes in the basics options should be set at? he has just got this new computer and for the first time he is useing xp. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Colin Baxter" <C.R.Baxter@xxxxxxxxxx> To: <jaws-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Friday, April 22, 2005 10:58 AM Subject: [jaws-uk] Re: log in page Hi Susan, I'm no expert, but I think I'm running the same set of programs as you. I don't have this problem. When the PC boots up, Jaws gives a little bit of functionality, but doesn't run fully until I log on. I guess it is all to do with ticking the right boxes in the 'Basics' option. One problem we have had (and maybe we still do) is that, if my wife logs on before I've used the PC, she ends up with Jaws, which is something that she doesn't want. I used to have terrible trouble when I was still working, both on start-up and especially on shut-down. The university system required me to do things when Jaws had stopped or not yet started. In the end, I left my machine running permanently. I hope you get sorted soon.
