Hello, while on  Chrome, press F6 and continue tabbing until you hear the Chrome Menu and press enter.
Then, switch to virtual PC cursor mode, and navigate by heading and locate advance and click spacebar to expand it.
Right Under the advance heading, you will be noticing a new heading titled as languages under which you are going to have
Language
English
Show language options
 Spell check which is a toggled control; that means you can turn it on or off by pressing space.
Once you turn it on, you will have the 2 spelling options, Basic and Enhanced Spelling respectively  which are presented as radio buttons, so that you could make the selection to your liking.

Hope this helps

Thanks. After setting it up how do I get it to work? Is it just
supposed to prompt you as your writing? That's what it does on my
android phone, but if it works that way too on the pc, I don't know
how to get to the word suggestions and pick the one I want.

Concerning the word suggestion part of your question, I am not sure if
Chrome contains such a feature or if Jaws is able to detect it.
However, as you type, Jaws warns you of misspelling on each word, in
case it happens.
