Hi Chris. A couple of questions. firstly, do you have any more details on the windows7 list how to subscribe etc? Secondly, what do you mean by terminal session? Virtual PC is just running XP in a virtual environment much as VMWare would surely? or is XP being directly controled by windows 7 i.e you're still using windows 7 but with the xp backend? i hope this makes sense i just didn't understand your terminology, virtual terminal verses terminal...

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.
