What about if you make jaws to sleep? Snoring too! <Smile>
Here is the instruction from jaws configuration.
This dialog is found within Configuration Manager, under the Set Options menu.

Sleeping Mode

These check boxes are used to turn off JAWS processing within specific applications. This is generally used in applications that provide their own speech or Braille support.

We recommend you do not set this option in Default.jcf, as this would stop all processing of JAWS commands.

a.. Enable: If checked, this option enables sleep mode, and turns off JAWS processing. This check box is cleared by default. b.. Unload Synthesizer: If checked, the synthesizer is unloaded from memory, freeing it for use by other applications. This check box is cleared by default. This check box is only available if the Enable check box is checked. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Mike & Barbara In Arcadia" <mb69ma...@charter.net>

Hi Yvonne;

If you have Jaws running & you start NVDA, Jaws keystrokes will no longer
work. Try the following when you have NVDA & Jaws running at the same time.

1. Press Insert + F2, This is, Pass next key through NVDA+f2 Tells NVDA to
pass the next key straight through.
2. Now, use the Jaws keystroke of Insert / Jaws key + F4, then press enter
to unload / shut down Jaws.  Jaws will shut down & only NVDA will be
running.  If you want to use Jaws again, press Insert + Q, to shut down
NVDA.  Then invoke whatever your shortcut keystroke is for starting Jaws.
This is what I do on a XP computer, hopefully it will work the same way with
Windows7.

Hope this helps.  Take care.
Mike

Not 100% sure but I believe if you try and start NVDA with Jaws running it
 will close jaws.

 And if it doesn't then you will have lots of problems because even though
 Jaws is silent you still have the competing keyboard commands ... so in a
 word NO!

 Subject: [Blind-Computing] muting jaws

 Hello

 Is it possible to mute jaws rather than have it not start at start up or
 restart of the computer?

 I want to combine jaws with n v d a

 Reason is there are occasions when something I do may take longer than 40
 minutes

 For that reason I would like jaws to start then be able to mute jaws so
that
 only n v d a is sounding.

 And of course be able to un mute jaws if what I am doing leaves enough
time
 before the 40 minute deadline is up

 Can someone tell me if this can be done and how to do it?

 Thank you



 Yvonne
