Re: [JAWS-Users] Jaws not talking
John, Thanks for the Narrorator reminder. I figured out that the sound I was getting was something wanting to make a change to my system. Once I got past that, I checked volume controls. While doing that, Jaws started back to talking. The Jaws volume was not muted and was set at 55%. I had rebooted several times Go Figure! I think I have a gremlin messing with me. Lol!

Tammy, Highlight Jaws and press alt F and go to the jaws option menu, under basic and check that it is set to jaws to come on on startup, You will need visual help, since jaws is not talking, Check your mute key and also try insert spacebar S...

[JAWS-Users] using focus 40 with bluetooth
Hi, I had bluetooth set up on my focus 40, and when I went in to bluetooth settings in win10, it seems to say that the focus is paired, but I can't quickly press the power key so that I can read with the display what the computer has on it as you're supposed to be able to do according to the directions. I'm sure that the answer is right in front of me, but I sure can't figure it out, and I'm still new with this display. I sure wish I could find someone locally who knows the focus through and through, as I learn better from someone's experience if you know what I mean. So, any clues? thanks, Bill K.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Driver update
If your computer is running normally, with no obvious problems, my best advice to you is to leave it alone. Optionally, you can go into the Windows Update program and look under the optional updates section. Here, you will find any driver updates that the Windows Update service recommends for your computer. Unless you are adding cutting-edge hardware to your computer, most Windows 7 drivers have been stable for a long time. If it's not broke, don't try to fix it.
