for windows xp, can you bring up narrator and read the error message, bring
up task manager and see if jfw is in the list and end its task?  If you can
read the error message, try to copy it down and send it to:
softwaresupport@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
along with any details that may be of help such as what you were doing when
the problem occurred, your os, and other system specs including version of
jaws, serial number and what synth you are using.

If you can end the task, see if you can restart jaws without shutting down
the pc.  if this fails, see if you can restart he pc normally.  If this all
fails, put it in yor request for assistance to freedom.

I've had the same problem also. I am using jaws 5.0.844, and windows xp
home. When the described situation happens I can't even unload jaws to
reload it. I also have to do a cold shutdown.
