OK, this is incredibly bazaar! I'm running jfw, v 10.0.512 on Windows XP Home Edition SP3. I have all the windows updates, including the ones that are noncumulative. I have experienced this exact same issue in jfw V9 as well. I have messenger set where all conversation windows use hearts s the background. I dont' think that is rellavent though, as it never has been in the past. Running 1024X by 768X pixils 32Bit color. I'm using the Windows Classic scheme with all conversation windows maximised. OK, having given this info, here is my problem:
When I am in a conversation window, Let's say, I typed: Hello Dad. I hope that you are having a wonderfjul night.
OK, notice: wonderfjul. I did that on purpose. That wasn't a typo. Well, put it this way. It was a typo, but not in the since of a typo in this e-mail. OK, if I now hit the back space key, I hear all the letters being back spaced out, just like normal. The issue however arises when I try moving to previous word either with insert numpad 4 on my desktop, or capslock J on my laptop. If I do this, all I here is blank, blank blank. Now, If I then do control shift end, to select the text from the insertion point to the end of the message, then! it reads what is selected just fine. Also, if I read the current line with insert+num pad 8, or on the laptop, capslock i, All it reads is the clock. If I do insert page down to read the status line, all I hear is the clock. Yeah, I'm positive I'm in the conversation window. For one, I have low limited vision, but enough to see the screen to know which window has focus. Not only that, insert+T does! confirm I'm on the correct window. Again, I always! hit alt space, then X, to maximise the conversation window. Even if I dont' do this though, and leave it as is, in the restored state, it still! goes haywire. I've tried this on both my Desktop, and! my laptop. On both systems I've been able both with jfw8 and with jfw9 to regenerate this issue. I don't wanna get off topic, but just to narrow it down, I'll say this and then leave the fact at a hush, I promise: I have never! had Window-Eyes or NVDA or the like do this. So it's not a global screen reader issue I guess is what I'm saying. It seems to be universal just! to jfw.
According to device Manager, I have a Intel(R) 82945G Express Chipset Family Display adapter.
When I go to the Display chaining Manager, the primary is JAWSVID, and that is the only thing there. BTW, in device manager the only display adapter is the Intel(R) 82945G Express Chipset Family. So, I don't need to hook the secondary chain into the primary through regedit like FS has people do on some a the newer systems. You obviously can see I'm quite an advanced jfw, and pc user. I'm totally clueless on what in the bird is going on. This makes absolutely! entirely no sinse! never've seen sumpthin so bazaar!
