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.

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
