Crystal, I would go ahead and try to install Jaws. I didn't think computers came with screen savers installed anymore, but I am not so familiar with the screens on laptops so it may indeed be a screen saver. Again, I think your best bet is to try to get Jaws installed then at least you'll have full access when you adjust XP and Jaws to run optimally. Narrator is somewhat limited in scope, and I doubt you'd be able to make the XP settings changes with it without difficulty.
