Did you download the correct build of version 8. The first builds didn't work 
with Vista, only certain ones.

According to the Jaws web site, version 8 should run with Vista. I downloaded 
it, but it does not work. 

 

I don't Know if it is because I installed version 9 first. 

 

My main problem is I can not cut, copy or paste without the control key being 
electronically stuck.

I have no problem with  window Eyes and Narrator. Only Jaws has this problem.

I installed version 8 to see if it has this problem. Now I'm starting to wonder 
if it is my system.

 

Running Vista Business and Office business. 

If anyone else is running the same configuration would you please try a cut and 
paste in word and then try to alt tab to another program. If you can great. If 
you can not, you will hear Jaws say alt control tab. Unless you close down 
word, you are stuck in word. Alt f4 will not work, as control has been placed 
in the key sequence. 

 

Yes, I have repaired, uninstalled and reinstalled Jaws with no success.

 

I'm about to do a total clean wipe and reinstall my system.

 

Any suggestions are appreciated!
