I never put JAWS to sleep. I always unload it with the control f4 command before loading any self-voicing game. That way, I am sure that there won't be any conflict. --- In God we trust! ----- Original Message ----- From: "Philip Bennefall" <[email protected]> To: "Gamers Discussion list" <[email protected]> Sent: Saturday, November 28, 2009 3:09 PM Subject: Re: [Audyssey] XP Gamer Woes (?)
Hi Bill, I can only answer for Q9, but it sounds as though you might have your screen reader still running. If so, you either need to shut it down or in the case of Jaws put it to sleep, before the program will respond to any commands. This is not true of all screen readers, but without knowing which one you use it is the first piece of advice that I can give you.
