Since Roxio and Nero seem to work with Jaws well, should I install both to try, or would they mess up each other? If given a choice, which one do you think has more Jaws accessibility?

Hi Folks, Since there were people who wanted to know, aside from me how to fix the problem I was having, I thought I would post the fix here, for the benefit of those who weren't able to figure it out themselves before I could. My thanks to Steve, who's suggestion actually caused me to have more problems than I had previous to my other dilemma. Basically, what had happened was that I took Steve's suggestion, and installed Roxio Easy CD/DVD Creator 6 Platinum, which caused Roxio Easy CD Creator 5 to be uninstalled before it could install version 6. Well, doing that caused a maelstrom of problems, least of which was my CD burner not reading the files on any CD's I inserted into my CD-RW drive, and before anyone thinks to ask, these were original commercial disks I stuck in there, not burnt ones or previously burnt ones. Grin. Anyway, I am not saying that this was Steve's fault, or the fault of his suggestion, I figure I didn't do the install right, and the updates weren't installed properly. Suffice it to say, I had to do a system restore, in order to fix the reading capabilities of my CD-RW drive. Needless to say, I was forced to re-install Creator 5 and go with that. Anyway, onto the fix... So, I knew there must be a problem with the view settings because I could see the list view of items, I just couldn't see the tree view of files, so I figured there must be something wrong that I just wasn't catching. Quite frankly, I don't know how I could have missed it. First and foremost, one should highlight the properties of the start menu icon, or desktop icon, depending on where you activate creator 5 from. Actually, if you activate Creator 5 from the desktop icon that was originally put there when you installed the program, than most likely, you have launched the Easy CD Creator 5 Application Launcher, which is completely graphic and hard to work with, so I would suggest deleting that icon, and going into your start menu, pressing P for Programs, then R until you get to Roxio, then enter to land on Applications, then arrow down to Easy CD Creator 5 and press the applications key. You may not hear Jaws read that the applications menu has activated, but just arrow down and you'll find that it has activated. At this point, arrow down to Send To sub-menu, then arrow down to Desktop, Create Shortcut. Go to your Desktop, by pressing control+M or the alt+tab combination, and press the letter E to highlight the Easy CD Creator 5 icon. Press the applications key, and arrow up to properties. In the shortcut properties dialog box, tab to the shortcut key, if desired, and enter it, then tab once more to the run combo box, and arrow down to maximized, then tab to apply, then shift+tab back to ok. The decision of creating a shortcut key is completely yours, and is not necessary to fix the problem, just to let you all know. Now that you've done the initial set-up, highlight the desktop icon and press enter. Now that you have the Easy CD Creator 5 program open, press the alt+V for the view menu, and make sure the following is checked. If you find it is not checked, press enter on it to check it. The following should be checked: Show Explorer Bar. And; List. If you check these two items, you'll get all the accessibility you want. You can then press insert+H for available hotkeys. Hope this helps, and again, I thank Steve for his suggestion, and say that if it weren't for him, I would have never been driven to find the answer on my own. Thanks Steve.
