Some functionalities change between versions of Windows, and JAWS has to change in accordance with their most recent iterations. the JAWS update feature, now present, will not work on an operating system older than Windows XP. I found that the JAWS Configuration in JAWS7.0, which version of JAWS did work in Millennium, would not work on my Millennium machine. So there are technical issues, large or small, between different versions of JAWS and different operating systems. The highest recommended version of JAWS for Windows 98 and ME is JAWS7.0. After that, FS stopped producing specific versions of JAWS for those OS's.
