Fusion and JAWS with DCM in XPSP2

[Ryan Dour]

Hello,

I had a great thing going when I had Windows XPSP2 running with Jaws 8  
in fusion. However, after a reboot and setup of the JAWS video  
intercept, some things still failed to work properly.

1. In Word, the main content area simply would make the Windows "bong  
bong bong" sound as I used the arrow keys to navigate text. That is  
usually a problem with the Display Chaining Manager.
2. Some web pages would not read forms properly. Boot in BootCamp and  
the issue goes away.
3. Items in Windows Explorer were just not being read aloud with arrow  
keys, and would also do the "bong bong bong" stupid noise.

Now, I have updated the Fusion VMWare setup drivers. Remember, the  
video driver is VMWare VGA, which according to Freedom Scientific  
isn't officially supported. But, what do they support, they simply  
love telling you that they don't support half of the hardware or  
virtualization used by the real world and then get you off the phone  
ASAP.

Now, I already have a service agreement to get the JAWS 9 update. WIll  
that fix this issue, or are they still struggling with making good use  
of DCM?
