Hi Adrian & Ted, For whatever reason I didn't catch the original post, but this almost sounds like a Jaws sleep setting. I say that because Jaws works just fine in Openbook, but no other programs. I have no idea how sleep settings would be configured in Widows 10, so a call to FS / VFO as Adrian suggested would get you your best answer. Take care. Mike. Go Dodgers! Sent from my iBarstool. Arguing with a woman is like reading a software license agreement. In the end you have to ignore everything, & click I agree. ----- Original Message ----- From: Adrian Spratt To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Sent: Sunday, August 13, 2017 8:27 PM Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] jaws takes a nap after fifteen seconds
Ted, I see no one responded, which means everyone is as clueless as I on this one. Probably the best thing is to call FS/VFO tech support in the morning. This shouldn't happen, as if you need to be told. A JAWS repair might solve it, but it sounds like something more is going on. If you need repair instructions, please post again. -----Original Message----- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of Ted Larson Sent: Sunday, August 13, 2017 2:24 PM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: [JAWS-Users] jaws takes a nap after fifteen seconds Dear List: I recently migrated from Window-eyes to the latest version of Jaws. I have a windows ten computer. No matter what application I am in, with the exception of Open Book, Jaws will start to nod off after fifteen seconds from when I last pressed a key. Thus, if I wait for fifteen seconds before pressing a key, Jaws takes a half second to respond. If I type the letter w, for example, I will only hear the final syllable. I tried using the Eloquence, Realspeak, and the sapi voices and different persons within them to see if the problem would go away. So, what next should I try? Thanks for any ideas.
