HI,

It would have been nice to know. I understand that several jaws users is running Windows 7, but yes nothing was said about the 64 bit version. I can probably get the 32 bit version, if there is no plan to get the 64 bit version to work in the beta period for Windows 7, but I bought a computer designed to use 64 bit version. The 8 mb ram makes little sense when running 32 bit OS. I thought the idea with the 64 bit versions of Freedoms products, was to support Windows 7 since it will be the first OS from Microsoft that really focuses on getting the users over to 64 bit.

Well we will see what Freedom is doing in the next betas.

Claus

Windows 7 itself is a beta product at this point. So JAWS 10 64-bit has not likely been tested that extensively with Windows 7. The current version of
JAWS 64-bit was tested on Vista however.  So you'll likely get better
results running this on Vista than on Windows 7.

No. JAWS 10 will not work with 64 bit versions of 7, so I hear.

Hi,
I am testing the Windows 7 beta, and today I finally did get the  pc up
and
running with Narrator. But of course I want to have JAWS 10 on the pc.

I have downloaded the latest 64 bit jaws 10 posted at Freedom on march
12th.

When I install  it or try to, I first of course get the UAC  prompt, and
then the following error:

There was an error during the installation process.

And an ok button.
I know other users have been testing 7 for a  while, so I wonder what is
going on here. Maybe something with my graphics card? Of course  I cannot
remember the model right now, but it should be fine with JAWS, since there
is no  longer an FS list of graphics cards that causes problems.

Claus
