Joseph, This imformation was taken directly from the Freedom Scientific website. Question: What is the difference between the Standard and Professional authorization versions of JAWS and MAGic? Answer: Authorization for the Standard versions of JAWS and MAGic only allow you to use JAWS or MAGic with Windows 9x and XP Home edition. Authorization for the Professional versions of JAWS and MAGic allow you to use JAWS or MAGic with Windows 95, 98, ME, NT 4.0, 2000, XP Home edition, and XP Professional edition. Though Windows XP Media Center Edition and Windows XP Tablet are not officially supported by Freedom Scientific and have not been fully tested, only Professional will run on these operating system. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Joseph Machise" <josephmachise@xxxxxxxxxxx> To: <jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Sunday, November 13, 2005 8:22 AM Subject: Re: Jaws 7 Pro Problem Well Vicky Jaws pro, will not work with XP home, they should have told you.

I have a Jaws 7 Pro question I am hoping someone can help me with. I am using Windows XP home edition and was previously using JAWS 5.1 Standard. In the last couple of days I upgraded to JAWS 7 Pro as I was told that this version would work with Windows XP Home Edition. When I installed it, I was asked to shut down the computer and restart it so the necessary changes could be made. I did this and installed Jaws with sighted assistance. When the computer restarted it worked fine and Jaws spoke. I also set Jaws to start up immediately as soon as windows started up. Later, when I tried restarting the computer again, Jaws would not speak. It would start up automatically but would not speak. I checked to make sure that the speech wasn't set so that it didn't speak at all and it was set to speak words so don't see a problem there. Just wondered, does anyone have any idea as to why it might not be working?
