Hi Louise.
It might be a case of not enough ram.
Microsoft have under-estimated the ram required for Vista; they say
512mb when in fact, 1ggb is better. When you chuck in a screen
reader or other assistive software, that memory requirement increases.
If you can, put as much ram into your laptop as possible and see if
things get better.

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?
Cheers,
Louise.
