     I  am using old laptop but after the update  apart from the view menu on 
laptop going wrong and Bill white helping me get it right  My windows 7 desktop 
using ms outlook jaws 11 64 bit started crashing suddenly I did not the 
following first On loading up to desktop and hearing Jaws say clearly Jaws is 
ready a bell would ring,a bit like a door bell, I have not heard it before, in 
my ocr for example if I tip a load of tiff files into it, will digest and often 
I get a loud dong like a door bell It can be turned off. I have never heard 
Jaws however take up bell ringing. the sound has gone completely that is 2 
times this desktop has done that.My old desktop that failed last year never 
muted, it is not just low sound I have enough sight to see the screen is busy 
and the jaws Blue flag is up on left side of screen last time this happened I 
went to  garden gate and waylaid a passer by,but I do recall some kind person 
maybe David whitehead sending in instructions on how to get sound back, I 
wonder also if the patches cause this it is second time dell has lost sound and 
I do not like the crash,I run all systems which give a clean bill of health at 
least the action center does and Ms essentials Dorothy
