Hi all,
I've noticed an observation with JAWS and Windows XP. My father's machine
has multiple accounts set up, which is fair enough as it's a family machine.
The screen saver comes on after 10 minutes, however when I press a key to
get out of the screen saver and choose the user, JAWS doesn't want to speak
at all. It was so bad that I had to force it off and turn it back on again
to get it running again. I seem to remember this is a Windows XP bug that
was fixed in Vista, but can someone verify this for me please? The screen
saver in question is the default Windows XP one. In case you need it, my
father's machine is a Dell Dimentions Ins2400. To resolve this, I set it to
"(none)" in display properties. Thanks!
