This subject was touched upon before. When starting the cojmputer nothing is spoken. This happens while you are in the user's list. Jaws is set to speak automatically but still there isn't anthing. If enter is pressed and jaws is shut down and restarted then there willbe speech. I've on vacation for the last 2 weeks, so, if there was an answer to this problem will someone report back what will help. As a matter of fact a sighted peson needs to click on the user with the mouse for any action from the computer. After this is solved I've had no other problems with speech as long as you comtinuous use the computer. If the computer is set for awhile then we are back to the same problem. In order to solve the problem from this position you will have to restart the computer.
