Hi Al, Check to see if you have an entry in the programs list in the start menu, for system recovery. There may be a selection there to restore drivers. Usually, this can be done from the recovery partition if your system has one. There are usually options to only re-install certain components, without re-installing the entire system. Outside of that, visit the video manufacturer's website, and download a new set of drivers for your display. Optionally, you could un-install the display adapter, and let Windows re-detect it on re-boot, and re-install the drivers. When dealing with video, or display issues, most certainly you will be without Jaws, but Narrator can be used to re-install the video intercept.

I use JAWS version 8.0 on my wife's Acer computer running Windows XP when I have to check things out or repair something for her. The other day when I booted Jaws on it to check something out I get the old video intercept error message with an option to reinstall it. It will not let me do it even after rebooting the machine. JAWS seems to work ok but what I discovered was the video driver on her machine has somehow become corrupt. Here's the question, how do I restore or fix that from her system recovery discs without reinstalling the entire restore? thanks Al Visit the Blind Computing List home page at: http://www.blind-computing.com Address for the list archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ To post to this group, send email to [email protected] To unsubscribe from this group, send an email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] For help from Mailman with your account Put the word help in the subject or body of a blank message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Use the following form in order to contact the management team http://www.jaws-users.com/BlindComputing.php If you wish to join the JAWS Users List send a blank email to the following address: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Visit the Blind Computing List home page at: http://www.blind-computing.com Address for the list archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ To post to this group, send email to [email protected] To unsubscribe from this group, send an email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] For help from Mailman with your account Put the word help in the subject or body of a blank message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Use the following form in order to contact the management team http://www.jaws-users.com/BlindComputing.php If you wish to join the JAWS Users List send a blank email to the following address: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
