Hi,
This has been discussed on the Windows 7 list. Unfortunately, it is not
possible to use JAWS in a Windows XP mode environment. Virtual PC
creates a terminal session by default, and JAWS doesn't understand that
it's not actually a terminal session; rather a "virtual" terminal
session created by Virtual PC. As a result JAWS thinks you're trying to
run it in a terminal session, and therefore will not work and instead
display an error message and quits. For the record, other screen readers
work, but this is outside the scopes of this list.
Sorry about that.

Hello,
Wondered if anyone has been able to successfully use Jaws 11 in Windows XP
mode in Windows 7 to access or use earlier programs that aren't or won't be
compatible with Windows 7?
If so are there any special settings needed in order to successfully use
Jaws in the Windows XP compatible mode in Windows 7?
Thanks.
