Re: [JAWS-Users] jaws 8 and vista home premium
Hi, I already knew this. I knew what the video problem was caused by. I just installed it for testing purposes only, and it at least ran under Vista, except for that error.

Re: [JAWS-Users] jaws 8 and vista home premium
Hi, JAWS 8.0.2173 (The last JAWS 8.0 release) works with Windows Vista Home Premium. If possible, I'd recommend upgrading to JAWS 9.0 once the final release comes out...Eloquence is a lot more responsive, and a lot of problems have been fixed.

Eloquence sounds like crap now with the rice crispies effect. I'll take some slowness which I didn't have on my machine over the constant crackling.

Re: [JAWS-Users] JAWS 8 and Vista
Hi Jerry, If you are going to buy a new computer off-the-shelf, then expect to buy it with Vista already loaded. There may still be some XP machines out there, but they will be hard to find. A word of caution, spend a little extra money, and get a machine with something more than Vista home basic. The low end of Vista, has less than Xp home.

Re: [JAWS-Users] JAWS 8 and Vista
Hi Francis, I bought a laptop running Vista and haven't had any real problems. Sure, it requires some configuration and some getting used to, but that's true with anything new in technology. I'd say don't be afraid to upgrade...I tried to make my XP laptop hold out as long as possible for fear of upgrading to Vista because of the problems you described...And so far, I haven't had any real problems.

Hi, That's verry, verry simple! Really, it is! Reload JAWS. Yep, that's it This command is also available in JAWS 7.10.500. It's for emergencies when you can't get JAWS to work properly, or unload it properrly. Hope this helps, Jeffrey Check out my blog!

Re: [JAWS-Users] JAWS 8 and Vista
Hi Michael: About Vista: I hear that there is Vista Ultimate and a number of other other names that cropped up. My computer has 2 GB of memory and the processor is supposed to be 3.6 Ghz so if I upgrade to Vista what should I buy. I am also supposed to get a laptop when I do my teaching assignments and, here again, I would like some suggestions. Some people recommend a minimum of 1 GB of memory and some people tell me that that is not good enough. And what about the size of the hard drive. And also what is a good brand of lap top I should purchase. I have always used a desktop version and I am wondering whether I can buy a USB keypad to use instead of having to learn the laptop keystrokes. Thanks in advance for any help I can get.

Re: [JAWS-Users] JAWS 8 and Vista
Hi Francis, I have Windows Vista Home Premium, and a 120 GB hard drive with 1 GB of memory. I don't know about my processer, or whether a USB keypad will work for using JAWS keystrokes. However, I tend to think you could hook a USB keypad up...Although, in all honesty, I have JAWS set to desktop keystrokes and really haven't had any problems with navigating with the PC and JAWS cursors, etc. As far as what laptop to buy, I'd stay away from HP. I have had problems with the DC connector coming loose inside the computer when I have the computer plugged in to an outlet. Right now, I have a Sony Vyo VGN-N365...Or something like that...And it works great. If you have any other questions, I'd be more then happy to help you; please email them to me off-list as the topic is starting to stray away from JAWS.

Re: [JAWS-Users] JAWS 8 and Vista
Hi Francis, If my memory serves me correctly, I think someone on the list was saying they ad trouble with the USB Keypad working with jaws sometime earlier this year. May be one of the other moderators might remember better. As to using the laptop key strokes, truthfully I work with botha laptop (my personal system) and a desktop at work. Shifting between the two is pretty cool and I find that using the desktop keystrokes on the laptop ca be a bit awkward since the insert is not in a convenient place.

Re: [JAWS-Users] JAWS 8 and Vista
Hi Francis, There are technically six versions of Vista: Starter, Home Basic, Home Premium, Business, Enterprise and Ultimate (which I have on my system). For RAM, I would say that 1 GB should be fine. I recommend at least 60 GB hard disk (Vista installation is larger than previous Windows versions). 2 GB RAM is useful if you are going to do extensive gaming and multimedia tasas on your system.

The latest version of JAWS is 8.0.2317 (or is it 71? and as your list appears to have quite a number of experts, please let me have the benefit of your advice and comments. Another thing: I hear that JAWS 9 is due some time this month. Anyway, I look forward to hearing from you all.

Re: [JAWS-Users] jaws 8 with vista
Mike, If you are trying to install JAWS 8.0.2173, and having this issue, please call the support department at Freedom Scientific and these should be able to resolve it. If you are using an earlier version of JAWS 8.0, please download the 8.0.2173 version now from the Freedom Scientific web site and try this build.

Re: [JAWS-Users] jaws 8 with vista
Hi there, What JAWS 8.0 version (1163, 2107 or 2173) are you using? I think you'll have to uninstall and reinstall JAWS.
