The following problem happened on my Toshiba notebook running windows XP with
jaws 5.00812 running at a screen resolution of 1024 by 768 16 bit colors
I'm wondering if anyone else besides me has had a problem with NVIDIA display
software update released on October 17 2003.
It was a driver for my NVIDIA GeForce4 420 Go (Toshiba) display from
windowsUpdate.
as soon as I downloaded and installed it, needed to reboot the system, which I
let it do.
from that point on, Jaws never spoke a word, although it was running (according
to sighted assistance)
I tried rolling back the driver and doing a full repair on jaws, but neither
had any affect. the thing that finally worked was when I restored to the
restore point the system created before the install.
I'm wondering if anyone has come across this at all.
the old driver (the one I'm still using) was giving me some critical errors,
and I've since loaded jaws 5.00844, but wanted some idea from others before
trying it again as doing the above was a real pain.
Thanks.
Lorne
