Can you bring JAWS up manually?
How long do you wait for JAWS to come up?
Perhaps when you turned off your PC, you caused it to perform a scandisk.
This can take quite a while, and you won't hear JAWS until scandisk is finished.

  Hi Dave and Everyone,
  Thanks for all your feedback.  Well at the time of my typo I just turned off 
machine because I did not know what windows+l did.  
  My problem is that Jaws will not come up after rebooting.  Any ideas?
  Thanks,
  Ann

    Ann,

    Have you been able to resolve? I see you've been given several different 
instructions.

    If you're running with a password requiring you to start Windows, then 
after Windows+L you'll need to enter your password to unlock.

    If you are working in an environment where the network is managed by a 
server then you'll usually be prompted to press Ctrl+Alt+Delete to initiate the 
password entry process. However most individual computers don't have this 
nuance.

    Simply put, unless you have a password, just hit enter and you'll be back 
in your desktop.

    BTW Windows+U is the utility manager and narrator usually comes up, but it 
is not the panacea for Windows+L.

    Also Windows +L is not a toggle for Windows+L.

    Dave

      Hi All,
      I typed windows+l which is the key combo to lock the key board.  I was 
forced to reboot.  I did not know what this key was so is there a way to unloc 
the keyboard, like shift+windows+l?
      Also as a result of my typo, when I reboot JFW10 in Windows XP will no 
longer  automatically come up after rebooting.  I went into Jaws window and box 
is checked.  
      Any ideas?
      Thanks,
      Ann
