Lora,
I am running JAWS 5.0.844 together with Zoomtext 8.1 without problems.
Before running Zoomtext 8.1 I ran Zoomtext 8.0.4 for about 6 months also
without problems.
The only thing I can imagine is that you are running low on memory and/or
CPU power.
I have a 1.6 GigaHertz Pentium mobile with 1024 Megabytes of memory.
I can start and stop both JAWS and Zoomtext without crashing my system. It
also doesn't matter in what order I start or stop the programs. My system
remains stable.
Hope this helps.
Regards Harald.

Subject: JAWS and Zoomtext
I'm trying to get JAWS 5.0 Build 8.44 and Zoomtext 8.04 to work together
reliably. When both are running, JAWS is exceedingly sluggish, and things I
take for granted (I don't run Zoomtext), don't work, or no longer work well.
For instance, bringing up the links list with Insert-F7 has been known to
crash when Zoomtext is running with JAWS.
Crashes in general are more frequent, about four per day. These crashes
usually are of JAWS; Zoomtext remains active. JAWS can usually be
restarted, but this is unsatisfactory.
We installed Zoomtext before JAWS. We also have tried running both as
services, both as applications, and then one of each, with the same results.
Any thoughts?
And is Magic any better than Zoomtext? A year ago, the user having these
problems didn't want to use Magic, because of the granularity of the images.
Thanks.
Lora
