Kim, depending on what version of Jaws you have to put Jaws to sleep bring up the configuration manager or settings manager with insert+6, and then check the proper checkbox to put Jaws to sleep. then, save the configuration for Rail Racer. Its really not that difficult to do although I haven't done this in a while since I am now a NVDA user.
All the same I feel you shouldn't blame Rail Racer for your own inexperience with Jaws. Knowing how to put your screen reader to sleep is your responsibility the game and its developer shouldn't be held accountable for your lack of knowledge. I'm sorry if I sound a bit rude here, I'm not trying to be, but it just sounds like you are blaming your problems on Rail Racer when your issue is a lack of experience with Jaws. :D Cheers!
