Well if you have jaws 7 you don't need the updated driver. SA&G
: Hi John, : : Below is what I got from Freedom Scientific knowledge base. I had it : for several years as a reminder, but I think that nothing has : changed. I am currently using PCI sound card for my Jaws 8.0 and my : main speakers are used for music and other sounds. I also do : recording of my LPs and the Jaws speakers does not interfere with the : recordings. : : Editing the jfw.ini file: : : 1. Using My Computer or Windows Explorer, browse your hard drive to : the currently running version of JAWS and find the jfw.ini file in : that folder. : : 2. Press ENTER to open. : : 3. You should find some lines that read: : : Synth1Name=eloq : : Synth1LongName=Eloquence for JAWS : : Synth1Driver=eloq : : The number doesn't matter, it may be 1, 2, or 3, but it must be the : same for all entries for Eloquence. : : 4. Add the following line after the driver line: Synth1Port=SB Live! : Wave Device Of course, you need to make sure that the synth number : matches the other : lines, so that if the Driver line read: : : Sytn3Driver=eloq : : Then the port line would read: : : Synth3Port=SB Live! Wave Device : : The text after the = sign in the Port line comes from Control : Panel/Sound & Multimedia/Audio tab It must be one of the entries that : can be chosen for Preferred : Playback device. : : 5. Save your changes and exit Notepad. : : Now you must install the updated driver.As long as JAWS is running : and speaking through Eloquence, eloq.jls cannot be simply overwritten : when unzipping : the file. You will need to switch to NoSpeech or MS SAPI to get the : eloq.jls to overwrite properly. : : 1. Download the file from : : ftp://ftp.freedomscientific.com/users/hj/private/eloq.zip : : 2. Unzip the zip file into the root of the active JAWS directory : where you made the change to the jfw.ini file. : : 3. Restart JAWS and it should now be speaking from the sound card you : wanted. : : 4. If not, make sure the entries are correct in the jfw.ini file and : that your sound card is indeed installed correctly. Most audio and : music production : software allows you to select a sound device for it as well, so it : can use one sound card while JAWS uses another. : : Note: This is what I put in my JFW.ini : Synth1Port=Creative Sound Blaster PCI : : : Hote this helps : : Lennie : : At 03:31 PM 4/16/2007, you wrote: : : Hi Sarah John R. here : First, I would like to make a grate comment on your website it is : very Jaws friendly and I find it intresting maybe you want to visit : my one on the following link and tell me what you think of it: : http://www.johnathanrichards.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk : : second.
