Thanks. -----Original Message----- From: jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of chris hallsworth Sent: Sunday, July 18, 2010 8:41 AM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Jaws with Windows xp mode in Windows 7 Hi Mo, To join the Windows 7 list send a blank message to blindwindows7-subscr...@yahoogroups.com. Now, from what I understand, XP Mode comes with a set of tools and drivers so that it runs better with Virtual PC and provides automatic logging onto the guest operating system. The other thing it does is to behave as if it's running in a terminal (remote desktop) session. It is this behaviour that is confusing JAWS and thus you cannot currently run JAWS in XP Mode, unless you use some other XP Mode implementation like there is in VMWare. Hope this helps.
