In my case I haven't any problem with the standby. I just let jawws and for that matter my whole computer just rest. I let it sit there for 2 maybe 4 minutes and it just works. The same with Hibernate. Although, when I wake my computer from hibernate, I usally let sit for around 5 minutes before I re-start using it again. You should try that. It may work for you. If not, you just restart jaws. it only takes 1 and a half minutes when getting out of hibernate.

It ashame because the standby or hibernate modes are so convenient. ----- Original Message ----- From: Cy Selfridge To: jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Monday, August 02, 2010 7:47 PM Subject: RE: jaws not behaving properly on restart or hibernate mode on laptop I use W7 64 bit, JAWS 11 and a HP Pavilion laptop. When it does come out of stand by mode not all things work as they should including Outlook 2007. The stand by or hybernate mode has been a problem as long as I can remember from JAWS 7 forward so i just do not do it.

There is so much variation in configurations these days - particularly with laptops - that it's hard to know where to start. I once spent two days trying to figure out why ZoomText wouldn't install on a laptop. The culpret in the end was a little software widget which came with the laptop which was constantly scanning for a network printer. Two days to find the widget, 30 seconds to delete it. Glen .

Incidentally, Freedom Scientific does not recommend using either stand-by or hybernate mode with JAWS.

Recently I noticed that when I restart the laptop computer or come out of hibernate mode, the cursors (down and up arrows) in jaws are not behaving properly. In otherwords, e.g., when I go to date and time and move down to read the time setting, for instance, it does not read. Also, in word perfect 8, the cursors read a blank, although if I go one character at a time to the left it will read the letter. Interestingly, when I shut down and turn the computer back on, everything works fine. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.
