There are indeed different versions of jaws for 32bit and 64bit windows but the price is the same. Different prices make a difference not with 32bit or 64bit but with which version of the operating system is being used, i.e. whehter jaws standard (for home) or professional systems is required.

OK I will attempt to clear up this debate over 32 bit and 64 bit systems. JAWS will work with either operating system as it offers a separate version at no extra cost. The only cost variable is home verses pro. So if you have a license for JAWS home then it will work with all 32 or 64 bit

Use the CAPSLOCK key which can function as the JAWS key. My idea was that if the JAWS cursor had become linked or 'tethered' to the PC cursor, that they be untethered. The PC cursor won't always operate correctly if the JAWS cursor is tethered to it. This causes awkward navigation problems.
