Hello, everyone.

In a recent post, I believe Adrian  said the following:

"Many listers have reported flaws in JAWS 12,
possibly because it is more directed to Windows 7 than XP. ...  I still use XP Pro,
and the warnings on this list have convinced me to stay with JAWS 11, even
though my SMA entitles me to JAWS 12."

The timing for this comment couldn't have been better in my case.

Although this is likely to change soon as my University switches us all completely over to Windows 7, my desktop at work is still an XP machine, and still has Jaws 11.  The back-up PC I have at home is an XP machine, and that too has Jaws 11.

So, is the collective wisdom of the group to keep things as they are now on the XP machines, rather than installing Jaws 12 which seems to be geared more to Windows 7?

If this is true, you guys have just saved me some head-aches with my remaining XP computers, and I thank you sincerely for that.

I'll save my headaches for installing Jaws 12 on the new Windows 7 laptop the University will give me this week.  (smile)

Tom,
I would stay with what versions of JAWS works well with your XP computers.
In other words, If it works don't fix it!

Ok, Steve. ... Thanks for the response.

I'm going to play it cool for a while here and see what other feedback I get.

Actually, I think my time and energy this week will be spent getting Jaws 12 up and running on the new Windows 7 laptop the University will be giving me, so the XP thing can wait for a bit.

Thanks, Pat.

Obviously, there are varying opinions here, so in the end, I guess I'll just make the most informed decision I can, and hope for the best.

This kind of thing keeps the mind young, at least!  (grin)

Thanks to Elf and everyone for your continuing suggestions here.

I appreciate them very much.

For now, I think I'll save my head-aches for Windows 7, and keep Jaws 11 on my XP machine for a while.

Tom,

While several people have reported issues, I've not had any and I am running

XP here with Jaws 12 Pro.

Subject: What to do about XP machines

   Hello, everyone.

In a recent post, I believe Adrian  said the following:

"Many listers have reported flaws in JAWS 12,
possibly because it is more directed to Windows 7 than XP. ...  I still 
use XP Pro,
and the warnings on this list have convinced me to stay with JAWS 11, even
though my SMA entitles me to JAWS 12."

The timing for this comment couldn't have been better in my case.

Although this is likely to change soon as my University switches us all 
completely over to Windows 7, my desktop at work is still an XP machine, 
and still has Jaws 11.  The back-up PC I have at home is an XP machine, 
and that too has Jaws 11.

So, is the collective wisdom of the group to keep things as they are now 
on the XP machines, rather than installing Jaws 12 which seems to be 
geared more to Windows 7?

If this is true, you guys have just saved me some head-aches with my 
remaining XP computers, and I thank you sincerely for that.

I'll save my headaches for installing Jaws 12 on the new Windows 7 laptop 
the University will give me this week.  (smile)

Actually, 11 wasn't so hot with XP either. I won't recount my story
again; I'm sure veterans will remember it.

I have used JAWS 11, 12 and 13 on a Windows XP pro machine with Office 2007.
I haven't really had any problems especially since I got my newer machine.
I did have the problem with Excel 2007, but I was able to fix that.

Uninstall JAWS 12 including shared files and user settings.  Then reinstall
it again.  It fixed it for me.  Remember to back up any special scripts you
may have installed before you do this.

still use XP Pro,
and the warnings on this list have convinced me to stay with JAWS 11,even
though my SMA entitles me to JAWS 12."

The timing for this comment couldn't have been better in my case.

Although this is likely to change soon as my University switches
us all completely over to Windows 7, my desktop at work is still
an XP machine, and still has Jaws 11.  The back-up PC I have at
home is an XP machine, and that too has Jaws 11.

So, is the collective wisdom of the group to keep things as they
are now on the XP machines, rather than installing Jaws 12 which
seems to be geared more to Windows 7?

If this is true, you guys have just saved me some head-aches with
my remaining XP computers, and I thank you sincerely for that.

I'll save my headaches for installing Jaws 12 on the new Windows 7
laptop the University will give me this week.  (smile)

Well I know dave Carlson was having trouble I wonder in which way your
equipment differs to his., Dave always says   which computer he is using,
maybe he will spot this and see if it works for him     regards  Dorothy

Uninstall JAWS 12 including shared files and user settings.  Then reinstall
it again.  It fixed it for me.  Remember to back up any special scripts you
may have installed before you do this.

I have used JAWS 11, 12 and 13 on a Windows XP pro machine with Office 
2007.
I haven't really had any problems especially since I got my newer machine.
I did have the problem with Excel 2007, but I was able to fix that.

I'm going to play it cool for a while here and see what other feedbackI
