Did you remove the previous MS word program? I don't know what the key
stroke insert delete does, I've not heard of that one.

Hi,
Recently I had a problem with my computer which necessitated reinstalling
drivers and programs. I originally had Word 2002, but Word 2000 was
installed by mistake. It then began acting flaky. I then installed Word 2002
from the CD. After registering it, it now reads all the menus immediately
when launched. Jaws is not responding correctly when I do an Insert Delete
to hear where the cursor is. It says "Line minus 1 Column 1". Can someone
please help me with this problem? I've tried everything I can think of to
do. I'm using the latest version of Jaws 10 with IE 7. Any assistance will
be greatly appreciated.
Regards, Jo Luland

Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] windows vista, any good?
I had to help someone with a Vista Laptop recently and I was pretty dismayed
with the setup and responsiveness.
Unhappily my wife also had it put on her desktop and a machine, reasonable
under XP, now crawls along.
There is no guarantee at all that software and devices that work in XP will
work in vista.
I think it is well known that Vista has been pretty much a disaster for
Microsoft which is why it has been speeding up the release of Windows 7.
Others on this list have reported that Windows 7 is a great improvement
over Vista.
Given the imminence of Windows 7 coming out, later on this month in the UK I
think, I would suggest you avoid Laptops with Vista and wait a little while
for ones installed with Windows 7 to come out.
Regards
David Griffith
