Just an idea out of left field, but how about disconnecting the computer from the router/modem to see if JAWS comes up speaking. It cant hurt. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jim L" <jimscave@xxxxxxxxxx> To: <jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Wednesday, October 28, 2009 7:48 PM Subject: RE: netgear and Jaws 8 No just the normal Jaws installation with remote disabled, just came to my attention this morning as when my windows booted up Jaws failed to talk and using NVDA Jaws was loaded and I couldn't connect to the net even after a reboot did the same, then after 10 mins or so my net connection came on and Jaws started talking -----Original Message----- From: jfw-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:jfw-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Dave Carlson Sent: Thursday, 29 October 2009 7:42 AM To: jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: netgear and Jaws 8 Jim, Are you using JAWS from a remote server? Check your basic settings for JAWS to make sure you're not depending on any network for its operation.

Once I connect though Jaws starts talking again, does anyone know why? how I can get Jaws to talk in an offline/unable to connect to my network environment? Cheers.
