Hi Steve,

If I leave my PC for any amout of time, without locking it, when I come =
back
to it Jaws usually has a difficult time regaining focus.  No, I'm not
running any screen savers either.

Hello Russel,

I have also experienced similar type problems with my laptop.  I did =
manage
to improve the situation upgrading the video drivers but it still =
happens.
I can get it to happen quite consistently if I use
ALT+CTRL+DEL to lock my workstation and unlock it when I come back to
the machine.

Hi all,

I am finding that Jaws 5.0 continually loses focus in WinXP, both the =
Home
and Pro versions.  For example, if I'm in Windows Explorer and move from
file to file, Jaws at some point will stop reading the name of the file =
I
move to.  If I press insert up arrow, Jaws will just say "Blank".=20
Also,
when Alt tabbing between open programs, many times Jaws will not read =
the
programs I am cycling through.  The only way to find out which program I =
am
on is to let go of the Alt key and often I'm not in the program I wish =
to
be.  Has anyone else found this?  Has anyone found a solution?  I've =
done
all the necessary steps to make Jaws work with WinXP as suggested by FS.
I've also tried changing screen resolution, colors, and updating my =
video
drivers.  I'm using a Matrox Millenium G200 video card at home and an =
Nvidia
TNT2 at work.  Thanks in advance for any help.


Russell
