Bill, In windows 7, the windows key followed by right arrow takes you to the
shutdown command and you enter on it to shutdown the computer.  If you do a
second right arrow after the shutdown command you have the other options
such as hibernate, lock the computer, restart etc.

Hi, Cy.  By the way, when I press my Windows key and arrow once to the
right, it doesn't land on anything that would shut down my computer.

I have the time out set for 1 hour so it won't go to sleep on me while I am
working on it.

I have it set to shut down when on battery power rather than just go to
sleep.

Yes, I do just shut it down when I am through. Just press the Windows key,
arrow once to the right and hit enter and it shuts down.

Hi: So I suppose you simply shut down when you're finished with the laptop
and live with it? It ashame because the standby or hibernate modes are so
convenient.

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.

No sorry I don't.  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.

Thanks for your thoughts; however, do you have any idea Why this problem
should occur simply with a restart as well?

I'm not an expert, but it sounds as if something is not being stored
properly when you go into and exit from hybernate mode. 

 

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

Subject: jaws not behaving properly on restart or hibernate mode on laptop

 

Hi: I am using jaws 10 on a toshiba laptop with xp pro. 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. John Fioravanti
