Hi. Have you tried installing JFW using the same authorization disk on a
machine that is not running Windows ME? I say this because we had ME for about
two years and had all kinds of trouble, not just with JAWS but with a number of
other programs Verizon DSL's software and a number of the games my husband
plays being another example.
Are you using a floppy disk or a dongol version?
The dongol version sounds useless and I sincerely hope FS rethinks that plan.
There should be no reason why a code can't be transmitted over the internet or
provided on floppy disk (or some other such media) as well. I would be very
rulctant to use the dongol version if it meant I had to always have the device
plugged into my usb port. Why waste a good port when there is no reason for it
to be wasted?

Hi Greg, I did check the authorization count on my Windows ME system and
there are five keys on the disk so that is not the problem. I just talked
to my Canadian dealer (Aroma group) and they suggested going to a used
computer store and getting a used floppy drive and installing that. I told
him I will not put used parts into a brand new system. Why do they think I
bought a new system in the first place? It would be kind of counter
productive to put used parts in a new system. I think I am coming to the
conclusion FS will never! ever! ever! get another sent from me again. I am
thoroughly disgusted with this company. The system we bought is nothing
exotic. 2.8 GHZ processor, Aopen micro ATX motherboard (not sure of the
model) built in video and sound, 6 USB ports, 2 in front and four in back,
CDRW and DVD drives, 1.44MB floppy drive, 120G hard drive. Nothing special
here.
Doug
