Hi Stuart,

Just to clarify for you my version of Jaws!

I have a 40 minute trial version of 9 for now but I am using the full
version of Jaws 8.

I have a very high spec laptop.

It is a Vostro using Windows XP Pro.

It has 3 gig of ram!

I could send you the complete spec
off list should you wish to pursue this further.

Someone has thrown out the possibility that it might have something to do
with the video card!

I don't think now that it is a jaws config situation!

I have however changed the Jaws key echo to echo  only words, and not as I
really prefer letters only!

Thanks,

Tony.----- Original Message -----
