Hmm, I use the classic theme and have no problem. I didn't have the vista one for very long, I made things look as classic as I could ----- Original Message ----- From: "Chip Orange" <Corange@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

It's not entirely clear what you may mean by using "both programs" simultaneously. Jaws 9 does have some issues with Vista, but generally works well. Unfortunately, I'm experiencing one of the issues where it begins to lose some of the video information, and Freedom Scientific tech support is now telling me that others have had this issue. They asked me to be sure I was using the Vista theme, as they thought it might be caused by use of other themes, but unfortunately for me, I am using that theme. There are some parts of certain operating system dialogs which are not exactly accessible. You've got to fall back on jaws cursor and exploring the window to find out the information you need. Still, it's pretty good, and if you have no choice, it's good enough. If you have a choice between vista and xp on this new laptop, I'd choose xp.

Hi, Does the latest version of JFW work with Windows Vista, Home Edition? I'm considering a new laptop, but I didn't know if I'd be able to use both programs simultaneously and successfully?
