Hello.
Since you are using Jaws and magic together is there a possibility that Jaws
is speaking relevant to the Jaws cursor or mouse pointer? Just to rule this
out make sure that your mouse pointer is not focused on the start menu.
I hope this helps.

Subject: Jaws not reading Windows start menu flys correctly
I frequently use the windows start menu and then press d for
documents. Out to the right (I have been told these are called flys)
are displayed the 15 or so most recently used documents.
Recently I have been having a little problem with Jaws occasionally
not reading correctly the items in the fly. I think it is reading
document titles from a past date? Not sure. I also use Magic and have
my screen set so I can see the screen a little bit, so can tell the
visual display is correct, but Jaws is reading some completely other
document titles. (When I navigate to a particular doc and open it,
the file matches the title that was visually displayed, not the other
title.)
Is this a Jaws problem or a Windows problem? Something not updating
properly? Normally my experience has been what Jaws reads does match
the screen display, so I am a little surprised by this recent glitch.
It only happens a fraction of the time. Started happening about a
week ago, did have a Jaws crash then. Mostly, Jaws is working OK in
other respects.
Michael
