Hi, there, Actually, I think it is a Jaws topic. There are things to watch out for. Certain video cards work better with jaws than others. The sound card and the mother board aren't as big a deal as the vid card. Go to the freedom scientific website and do a search for video card issues to get the latest info. The nvdia cards didn't used to work well with jaws but now, thankfully since my pc's came with them, that problem is under control. I'm sure there are others still out there who aren't though and it's worth looking into so you don't build a machine that isn't fully accessible to you. I'm going to also recommend 2 gigs of ram to you. You may want to buy things like natural-sounding voices for Jaws to use and the more the merrier is the rule with ram when it comes to big files like that. It'll also do you good if you plan to install things like OpenBook and work it in conjunction with Jaws, I.E. scanning stuff directly into word and with openbook and then manipulating it with your word processor using Jaws. I got the 2 gig recommendation from someone at Freedom during a technical support call and it's been good advice, so, I'll pass it on to you. Have fun building your pc and I hope this helps.
