Heya folks,
Just bought this netbook last few days and a weird thing so far is am
getting crashes whenever my screensaver is set to anything 3D, such as 3d
pipes, 3d flower box etc but on the other screensaver Jaws just announces
Screensaver and no blue screen of death.
I had a techno guy come over where I bought my netbook from and he was able
to stop XP home from rebooting automatically after the crash and see the
error say something to do with Jaws.exe. It didn't crash at all on any of
the other screensavers as we tested them all.
Anyone here have any idea what it maybe? Am running Jaws 9 on the above XP
Home netbook
Cheers,
Jim

Jaws has always been bad with screen savers. I have mine set to none.
The only time my monitor is on is when my wife uses the pc. I don't
need it on therefore, I don't sue a screen saver. Any way to turn your
netbook's monitor off? Some button up in the top right corner of the
netobbk's keyboard, maybe? The problem you are having is probably
related to your video card and how jaws interacts with it but, that's
jsut a guess. Jaws is probably trying to make sense of the screen which
is in perpetual flux. Maybe you can look into writing a script that
tells jaws to go to sleep when the .scr application loads and wake back
up when the screen saver is deactivated.
My two cents,
Alex
