[JAWS-Users] Re: turning off the monitor-Wizmo
I put wizmo on the lap top and I put it in the windows directory, didn't put the shortcut on the desktop but I go to the run dialog type in Wizmo space then either blackout or monoff either works and the screen goes off but when I hit any key the screen comes back on. Is their any way to keep the screen off while I am doing something on the lap top?

Now for the question I have, I have a laptop I use at church and I was curious if their is a way to turn off the screen. I think it is a distraction for the people when I am teaching Sunday school or at times when I am doing the Sunday service. Sure would appreciate the information if their is a way to turn it off.

Hi Larry, Depending on the version of windows media player you're using, you will need to download another component of the programme in order for it to work. I've never had any luck with burning CDs in that programme however and I know most people swear by Nero. One of the others would have to guide you on that though.

[JAWS-Users] Jaws MSN and Flash player
Hi list, have had a problem with using Jaws and MSN messenger. When chatting to a friend, a message came up saying I needed to install flash player, in order to use winks etc. I thought this was funny, as although I don't use winks etc, my friends have been sending them to me for a while and Jaws has had no problems reporting them to me. I therefore thought this new Flash player was an update. However, choosing cancel on the download didn't do anything, the message kept coming up. By choosing download didn't seem to install the software. I got a family member to help me and after a lot of trouble, they seemed to get it installed. The funny thing is, I only got this install message with one friend. I could chat to other friends just like normal, without any problems. This one friend though, I would hear her writing, but Jaws wouldn't read her messages. Similarly, Jaws would read my messages as I typed them, but when I pressed enter to send it, it wouldn't report my message was being sent. If I tried to read back through my sent and received messages, Jaws would report there were no messages. My friend though, was receiving my messages fine, so they were going through. I have had no problems messaging this friend in the past. It only started two days ago. Like I said, I can message other friends fine, but with this one friend I have these issues. Has anyone experienced this? In addition, the download said that Flash Player would be installed into Internet Explorer. Is there a way I can check to see if this program is actually there? I am using Jaws 8.0 and XP home.
