Nancy,
I'm using vista home premium and jaws 9 on a new Dell laptop, it can be
done!! It doesn't mean you and I have the same video card, which could
possibly be the problem, but Roy is quite correct about the amount of
trouble jaws has with windows which aren't maximized, and Chris is right
to point out that the issue could be Windows Mail (I use outlook, so
don't know how jaws works with windows mail).
How about trying notepad; type in a document that's many lines long, and
move around in it and see how it does. If notepad also gives you the
same trouble, it's likely to be an incompatibility with jaws and your
video driver or card, or perhaps a video setting.
Sometimes changing a video setting, such as reducing the number of
colors or the resolution, will help jaws in situations like this. The
advice to repair it is completely bogus imo.
hth,
Chip

Chris and List,
THANKS FOR CLEARING UP MY MISINFORMATION ABOUT Jaws pro and
home.
I am using Windows Mail in Vista Home Premium along with Jaws
home version 9.0.552.
Still having some trouble with it not reading the lines
correctly.
I was told this morning that I need to go in and repair Jaws and
will do that with tech support later today or tomorrow.
Thanks for all your input.
Nancy
