Hi there,
I have found out that
1. JFW doesn't work properly for all with the "Run JAWS First option.
(Don't know why but someone agreed it was probably a timing issue).
2. The "Run JAWS First" option kicks in earlier than the STARTUP Menu. (I
think I have found that you can actually get JAWS in before Windows 95 asks
for a Password this way.
3. For some unknown reason, I find that, although JAWS will work with the
"Run JAWS First" option checked on my machine, EUDORA runs much better if I
use the STARTUP Menu which I am now doing.
Hope this helps.
