Hi David: I have the latest versions of both JAWS and Window-eyes on my system and they coexist quite well, as long as you don't try to run both of them at the same time. If you want to start JAWS, you must close Window-eyes first. Also, you might want to give JAWS a hotkey such as control-alt-j. So when you close Window-eyes and you have no speech, just press control-alt-j or whatever your hotkey is, and then JAWS will start. Kevin Huber
