It is alive...

Of course it's running in 40minute demo mode, but my HP laptop is speaking
now.

Since I couldn't do much productive work without a working computer today, I
called FS and was advised to first go to the HP site and download any
current video drivers. Did it. Still not working.

The next suggestion was to download JFW 6.0. I didn't much care for the 5
hour download on my dialup connection but I didn't see many alternatives.
Jaws 6 loaded and supposedly loaded video drivers that FS has improved upon
so that it can do the video intercept.

At least in my case it worked. FS also tells me that the drivers will also
make my Jaws4.5 work as well. I haven't tried it yet. I guess I should but
as long as I invested in a monster download, and both 4.5 and 6.0 will only
run at the monent in demo mode, I might as well see what 6.0 can do.

In the meantime, I'm waiting for a *dongle* from FS. I just hope it isn't
anything pornographic *grin*. I guess it is a memory stick of some sort that
plugs into the USB slot and does the same thing as the floppy disk
authentication.
Now I get to get caught uup on work as I fumble around with a new keyboard
layout and play with the laptop configuration of Jaws.
