Is the Num Lock on or off?
The fact that the JAWS (Insert) key does not work is mystifying.
Oh, wait, which Insert key are you using, the one in the 6-pack, or the one
at the bottom of the Numpad? It could make a very big difference.

Hi,
I am using a desktop and pressed the insert key (JAWS key) and f2, but
didn't get anything.

That's truly strange. JAWS+F2 should bring up a list of actions, allowing
you to select the configuration manager, and other various goodies. Are you
certain you're using the JAWS key? If on a laptop layout, it's the Caps Lock
key.
Just doesn't seem right that you don't get the list.

Thanks. I might have to select no speech, because nothing happens when
I press JAWS key and f2.

JAWS+F2 will allow you to select the Configuration Manager.
Once there you press Alt+s, then A for advanced. Then the first
checkbox is for Sleep mode.
Then press OK, then Alt+F, s to save, and then Alt+f4 to close the
configuration manager.
Then JAWS will be asleep whenever you launch that application.
Other than that, the only other way to suspend JAWS is to press
JAWS+Ctrl+s and select "no speech" from the list of synthesizers.

Should these instructions work when in S A Mobile network, also?
I'd like to put JAWS asleep when S A Mobile starts. But, when I'm on the S A
Mobile desktop, nothing happens when I press the JAWS key and f2; probably
because I'm in another screen reader. Any thoughts?

yes this is easy.
open the game
JAWSKey+f2
choose configuration manager.
this will make a jcf file for the game if there is not one already
choose advanced from the set options menu.
Check the sleep mode check box
press enter to activate the ok button
Close the configuration manager and say yes when it asks if you
want to save the changes.
from then on when the game is running JAWS will be silent. when
you exit the game or alt+tab away from it JAWS will work normally.
