Hi:
This person will have to follow the instructions on disabling the com port which
are provided in the dectalk directory.
Once this is done he should be able to use JFW in a DOS box.

Hello there everyone,

This is a tricky little problem which I hope someone can help with.

I am running Windows 95 with Jaws 3.30.26 with Dectalk Express and/or
Eloquence.  I have need to work in MS DOS for several programmes, however,
any time I select the MS DOS option from the Start Menu the system starts
working extremely slowly and Jaws stops speaking.

If I unload Jaws for Windows prior to selecting the MS DOS prompt I am told
that the system works normally.  On returning to Windows and when I try to
reload Jaws for Windows Jaws starts talking garbage.  I have tried loading
Jaws for DOS but it has the same effect.

If I exit to native DOS and run Jaws for DOS it works properly but I then
cannot access the networked drives.

I have tried altering several of the options in the Configuration Manager
for the MS DOS window but with no effect, I have even tried setting Jaws to
sleep mode for MS DOS but to no avail.

Any thoughts on this one would be most appreciated.

Thanks in anticipation.

Jamie Cuthbertson
