Cheers, Josephos -----Original Message----- From: jfw-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:jfw-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Louise Sent: Sunday, June 10, 2007 6:49 AM To: jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Jaws 8 and vista Hi, I have just brought a new laptop which has vista premium on it and I have upgraded jaws and installed the latest version. I was wondering if anyone else had been finding that jaws was slow at times especially when typing characters into word, email or programmes like live messenger. Currently there seems to be about a 2 second delay between typing a character and hearing it spoken. I haven't seen any messages about this in the archives so don't know if it is not a common problem and if it is, does anybody have any ideas of settings I could change?
