Hi Catherine, simply insert your JAWS CD, and in the setup wizard, click 
repair. The rest is up to you, i.e., whether you want to remove user 
settings or not. Hope this helps.

Subject: Initialization Error Message With Jaws




Yesterday, while visiting a website and placing information on the 
clipboard, I also went to OE to check messages.  Jaws read the message list 
but when going into the message, it wouldn't read anything.

I then went to IE and tried going into sites that are in the favorites 
folder.  The site would open, but I couldn't do anything.  I then ran my 
antivirus program which found nothing.  I unloaded Jaws and when I tried to 
restart it, there was an error message saying that the application failed to 
initialize with an error number.  Unfortunately, I don't have the number to 
send.  After that, I had no speech at all.  I had someone sighted try to 
close the error message as no navigation keys would work.  Even though it 
was closed several times, it always reappeared.  I shut down, restarted and 
even unplugged the computer, all to no avail.

The problem is fixed at this point because my son came home and did a system 
restore.  Is there any other way to fix this problem if it happens again, 
and what would cause it in the first place?

Also, can someone tell me how to do a repair for version 9?  I know that 
they changed the way it is done from the earlier versions.

Thank you for reading this lengthy post and I appreciate any help that is 
given.

Katherine
