I've never had a computer that jaws liked after it was in standby, I've just had to disable it, every time I reinstall windows on a computer or get a new one I forget that too and so not on purpose, I test it on each computer and it's never worked for me yet, I can only recommend not using standby. Depending on the laptop, it doesn't save a noticeable amount of battery anyway. ----- Original Message ----- From: "James" <james@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Monday, February 07, 2005 4:14 PM Subject: Focus issues: JFW 6 >I use a laptop for university, and am having problems with the way JAWS > reads the screen.
