Hi,
Yesterday I received some Microblog updates and poor JAWS 10 really took it
in the shorts so far as Microsoft Outlook is concerned.
When I tried to reply to a message the entire world just locked up and the
laptop stuck all 4 feet up in the air. I, again, went back to 9.0 and all
seems to be well.

Hi,
        I've seen this problem as well, i've written to fs about it and have
got nowhere. It's for me very infrequent and hard to duplicate, but once it
happens jfw isn't usable at least not without a reboot, it won't read. I've
found that using run before startup seems to make the problem more
pronounced, i think it's something video related, or with multiple accounts
on the xp box, but haven't got anything else on this.
Dave.

Subject: Jaws 9 reading problems on laptop

Hello All,

Earlier this week I had my Dell laptop restored to factory settings by my
tech, not Dell,  and I don't know what difference that makes, but I've
noticed that since I've reinstalled Jaws 9 that when I go to the Jaws cursor
to read anything it won't read the majority of the time, even things it
normally does read.  In most cases reading with the pc cursor is fine.  When
I'm right arrowing reading tabs though it won't read the name of the tab
either in the Jaws cursor or the pc cursor, all it says is tab.  Does
anybody have any idea what might be wrong?

Thanks.

Troy
