I do believe it was jaws 10, at least that's the first version I have
this
ability listed in.

You are going about it the hard way. Correct that was the method in
the past
but for several versions already and I'm not sure when it began but
follow
these steps.
Go to your JAWS window.
Go to the utilities menu, and arrow down to the sound card sub menu.
In there you simply arrow to your desired card and hit enter.

Heyya folks & thanks for taking time to read this. I'm having a real
issue
this evening & I've hunted & tried most every thing. I purchased &
installed
an Audio Technica ATR 2100 Mic wich is both a USB & XLR Mic, that also
has a
headphone jack on the back of it for monitoring your output audio from
the
mic. The issue came in when I installed the mic. The mic changed my
output
device to that particular device. I was able to change everything back
to my
Real Teck HD output device through control panel. However, JAWS
remains
coming out the headphone jack of the mic. I've tried the steps
outlined
here.
Editing the jfw.ini file:
1.. Using My Computer or Windows Explorer, browse your hard drive to
the
currently running version of JAWS and find the jfw.ini file in that
folder.
2.. Press ENTER to open.
3.. You should find some lines that read:
a.. Synth1Name=eloq
b.. Synth1LongName=Eloquence for JAWS
c.. Synth1Driver=eloq
The number doesn't matter, it may be 1, 2, or 3, but it must be the
same
for all entries for Eloquence.
4.. Add the following line after the driver line: Synth1Port=SB Live!
Wave
Device. Of course, you need to make sure that the synth number matches
the
other lines, so that if the Driver line read "Synth3Driver=eloq" then
the
port line would read "Synth3Port=SB Live! Wave Device"
The text after the = sign in the Port line comes from Control
Panel/Sound
& Multimedia/Audio tab. It must be one of the entries that can be
chosen for
Preferred Playback device.
5.. Save your changes and exit Notepad. So, mine now looks like this.
6.. [Synthesizers]
Synth1Name=eloq
Synth1LongName=Eloquence Software
Synth1Driver=eloq
Synth1Port=SB Live! Wave Device
7.. Again, still no JAWS from my speakers, any help would be greatly
appreciated. Also when I take the device out & reconnect it, I once
again
have to change my sounds back in control panel. Look forward to
hearing from
someone soon. I'm as stated in the subject line running Windows XP SP3
&
JAWS 9.
