Upon further thought there is a definite way to solve this problem. 1. Create a hot key to load jaws when it is invoked. 2. Go to your jaws file menu and switch start up jaws first to not checked. 3. reboot your computer so that these changes can be made. After the machine has completely rebooted, still rrequiring the fifteen seconds you talked about, then use the hotkey to launch jaws. Jaws in this case will have been launched last, sparing you the wait of an extra fifteen seconds before you can use your screen reader. The only problem that the initial boot up of your machine is going to take that extra fifteen seconds to load up any way. -----Original Message----- From: Harry Bates <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Sunday, March 07, 1999 1:40 PM Subject: replyRe: speeding up boot up, how do fix shared >Regarding the extra fifteen seconds at the time of boot up, it happens to >me, also. >Since it is only 15 seconds of time used, I have come to accept it as the >nature of the beast. >I suppose all that additional booting up stuff, the additional grinding, >drumming and clicking of the computer, can be changed by being sure jfw is >the very last thing to boot up.
