Jim, I can definitely understand where you're coming from.
Like you said how on earth are you supposed to fix a problem if you 
can't reproduce it yourself? One thing that may be of use to you 
though.  On this particular machine, I am running at a much higher 
screen resolution than is normally done by some JAWS 
users.  Currently my screen resolution is 1024x768.  Now you might be 
asking well ok dude why in the hell don't you go down to 
800x600?  Well, the answer is, on this particular system, if I do, 
JAWS simply will not read anything, it's as if it only likes this 
particular screen resolution. I guess it has a lot to do with my 
particular video card and other such things.
Believe me, I tried running at 256 colors and 800x600, but things 
just didn't work for me.  I don't know if that helps at all but there it is.
