I did the jaws route process that is second nature well to me anyways it was how I was taught.. and it did say something like..checking and then it said fixing then said found 119 problems this is all after I selected them all and pressed to let it fix them I was a bit confused because of if it was done or not as it would say..fixing=completed of course I'm not hearing anything not even sounds from the computer just jaws when I pressed the appropriate keys and obtain the info.. Would be nice if it did tell you when it's done it did that in windows 98 told me the exit button.
Well thanks to all yall for the info now I'll know what to expect from here on in..
