Re: [JAWS-Users] Serious Problem Since Doing Latest Jaws 2018 Update

2018-03-21 Thread Tom Behler
Leonard:

I should have been clearer about a few points in my earlier update.

I did try Narrator and NVDA, and experienced the same sluggishness and speaker 
static issues.  I also experienced them with earlier versions of Jaws.

Fortunately, I've been working on things now for about a half hour, and 
everything seems to be back to normal.

Not sure why checking the control sound configurations and re-doing the docking 
station interface could have solved the problem, but I seem to be ok once again.

I suspect it’s a hardware problem also because You mentioned something about 
static in your speakers. If you have an earlier version of jaws see if you 
still get the static noise and if you have the same problem with lag time when 
typing and Also you might want to try to unload your current version of Jaws 
and bring up near raider type something in notes or some other editing program 
and see if you get that lag time that you talked about that you were getting in 
jaws v2018. Every country has an identity, history, custom, and culture. It’s a 
unique landscape in determining how its people Live, work, and play.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Serious Problem Since Doing Latest Jaws 2018 Update

2018-03-21 Thread Tom Behler
Well, you might be right.

I had some sighted assistance a little while ago.  We went into the control
panel and checked on a few of the sound card settings.  After that, things
improved slightly.

Then, I took the computer out of the docking station I use, and put it back
in.

Now the computer seems to be functioning much more normally.

Don't know what might have happened.  All I know is that the problems I had
earlier occurred after the latest Jaws update.

Whether or not the update is truly  related to what I experienced is still
unclear to me.

Perhaps the update temporarily messed with some sound card or other
configurations.

I suspect this is not a Jaws problem.  I say this because you installed an

 Hello, everyone.

 

I have developed a serious problem since doing the latest 2018 Jaws update
on this Windows 7 laptop.

 

In fact, it actually is very difficult to type this e-mail.

 

Since the update, my computer has basically slowed down to a crawl.

 

It's hard to type anything, because there is a several-second delay between
hitting a key, and getting a response from Jaws.I also have a great deal of
Static in my computer speakers, which I never had before.  Finally, I find
that I often have to restore focus with Jaws when doing a particular task.

 

I even went back to an earlier version of Jaws, and the problems persisted.

 

I called Freedom Scientific Tech support, and we re-installed the latest
Jaws update.  The problem still persisted.  I even did a Jaws repair with no
luck.

 

Needless to say, I'm not very happy!!

 

Has anyone had these problems with the latest update, and if so, what did
you do to address them?

 

This computer is a Dell business-grade computer, and I've never experienced
problems like this before from the many Jaws updates I have done over the
years.

 

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

 

I'm going to call Freedom Scientific again in the morning if I have no luck
between now and then.

Tom,

Unless you've tried it already, I'd complete uninstall JAWS 2018 to get back 
to an earlier version and determine that you've solved the problem. Then 
install an earlier version (you do keep all the files, don't you?)  of JAWS 
2018 and avoid the latest build.
