If you got your Zoom from Tap-I then call them as they should have sent you the 
new version.  Also same with Nanopac if it was within 30 days of release.  They 
are pretty good folks, so see what you can work out.  I know the new version 
has web cam support of some sort.  Not sure of what other changes.  Maybe 
someone else can give more details.  I think IE9 is still not a good idea for 
magnification users.

Hi, thanks.  It’s really not a problem.  The way I have it set up works pretty 
well.

But I am a little aggravated about V 10 being the latest version, I just 
received this 9.1 from Nano Pack about a month ago.

And maybe you can help me with this problem with my JAWS updates.

After installing JAWS 13, I checked for updates under the help menu and found 
one update available for JAWS and a bunch of training material updates.

I was able to download the JAWS update just fine, but it won’t let me download 
the training updates.  I tried checking one item at a time and have tried 
checking all the items at one time and nothing seems to work.

Is there a way that I can download this updated training material directly from 
the FS web site?

Thank you very much for your help.

Hi Steve,

 

Windows 7 uses mirror drivers, where XP didn’t.  I believe you do need to start 
it the way Zoomtext says.  Currant version of Zoom is 10 by the way.

Subject: [ATI] JAWS and Zoomtext at startup problem

 

Hello, I just received a new computer at my business office.

It has Windows 7 operating system, I haven’t loaded Office 2010 yet.

It has the latest version of Zoomtext, V9.1 and JAWS V 13.

With this software, I can’t have JAWS and Zoomtext both come on at start up.

JAWS starts up first and Zoomtext comes on with a message saying that Zoomtext 
has to come on before JAWS.

With my old XP operating systems, I am able to start both at start up.

But this is with Zoomtext V. 9.

As I still have a small amount of vision in my left eye, I get some benefit 
from the Zoomtext color enhancements and magnification.

And basically use JAWS for speech.

I would like to have JAWS and Zoomtext both come on at start up, JAWS for 
speech and Zoomtext for color enhancement and magnification.

Is there a way to do this?

The way I have it right now is, I have Zoomtext come on at start up with color 
enhancement and magnification turned on with out speech.

Then I have JAWS in the start menu, so after Zoomtext is up, I enter the letter 
J in the start edit box and press enter and JAWS starts up with speech.

And this isn’t all that bad, but I would like for both of the programs to start 
at start up.

Zoomtext with color enhancement and magnification and JAWS for speech.

Can this be done using Windows 7 and the current versions of JAWS and Zoomtext?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks, and sorry for the lengthy explanation.

Steve
