Hi Louise,
Are you using JAWS 8.0 Beta 2? If not, I highly recommend that you upgrade

Hi Joseph,
Yeah that is right. I have office 2007 home and student installed. it is 
slow on word but also on programmes like live messenger, basically whenever 
I type in any letters there is a delay.

Cheers,

Louise.
