John, You may have to do a System Restore. That's the only way I got my problem fixed. I tried uninstalling and then re-installing Jaws from the orihginal system disk but it didn't help. I'm not sure what the problem is since I'm using Windows 7 but something is certainly going on. JOHN AND

Try downloading the exe again. Or it might be the old version won't allow the update. In that case do a repair on it. Or if you have a older version as JAWS 11 uninstall the Version 12 and than try to run the EXE. RJ - Original Message - From: nomi pathak.nomi.pun...@gmail.com To:

That don't mean a problem with your system, but does mean a problem with the jaws file itself. Looks like FS needs to look at the bugs missed and forget the bells and whistles. It is slowly looking like a video card issue or not tested with other video drivers. I say all these emails sent to
