Hi Jason;

To check the cursor blink rate using XP Home or Pro do the following;
1. Open the Control Panel & press enter on Accessibility Options.
2. When Accessibility Options opens you will be on the Keyboard Page so, 
Control + tab, 2 times to the Display Page.
3. Tab a couple of times to, Cursor Options, Jaws should read, Blink Rate, 
left, right slider, 63%.  If Jaws doesn't say this, use your arrow keys, up 
& down until you get to 63%.
4. Tab 1 more time to check your Cursor Options Width, this should be at 0%.
If any changes were made, tab to apply, press spacebar, tab to okay press 
spacebar & Alt + F4 to close the Control Panel.

Hope this helps.  Take care.
Mike
