one simple thing to check for. When you press ctrl+JAWSKey+NumpadMinus,
JAWS should say, "the JAWS cursor will not follow the PC cursor". If it
says that the JAWS cursor will follow... then press those keys again.
Pressing those keys twice quickly will maintain that status throughout
all applications, until you do this again. Have it so that the JAWS
cursor will NOT follow the PC cursor.

Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Jumping PC cursor
This is what I did.
I put the mouse cursor at the top of my screen. When there is someone
that can see, I have them put the mouse cursor above my document.

Hi,
I have a problem what I think it has to do with the Jaws PC cursor.
I could be on the desktop or in a folder with file names. It makes no
difference. When I bring up the desktop, the cursor does not always
land back on the Icon that I Started with. For example, I press enter
on my computer, perform my task and Alt+F4. When the desktop is
displayed, the cursor could be on another Icon instead of my computer
icon.
This is the same when I go into a folder. I could be on a file that I
want to open and when I press enter on it, the cursor jumps to
another file and opens that one. This can also happen when in my
favorites. I press enter on a particular shortcut that I want to go
to and the cursor jump to another shortcut and bring up that web
page. I don't have to press enter for the cursor to jump. I can land
on a file name and not doing anything, the cursor jumps anyway. This
problem doesn't occur within an application like Excel or Word.
I am wondering if this has anything to do with the video intercept?
Perhaps the video intercept is corrupted and/or needs to be repaired
or updated? This problem happens in both the latest Jaws 12 and
Jaws13. I am using windows XP . I have a laptop with windows7 and
this problem does not occur in either Jaws12 &13.
Does Jaws 12 or 13 use video intercept or have FS change this? Any
suggestion on how to correct this problem will greatly be
appreciated. Thank you.
Take care.
Lennie
