When you go to the download page for the thumb drive version of jaws, it should list all the files you need. in addition to the jaws application for thumb drives itself, you need the installer for the video intercept and optionally, if you use a dongle to authorize your version of jaws, the sentinel dongle driver or whatever that thing is called. Both of those files are downloadble from the fs's website on the page for the thumb drive version.
You can, in theory, use older versions of jaws on the thumb drive up to version 5.10 of jaws that installed to the root of the disk rather than into program files and the user's directory. You'd have to copy the installation directory of the jaws version you want to the root of your thub drive and then sstill cuse the video intercept installer for the thumb drive version of jaws above. i do not see any adventage in doing this though unless you still have a version of jaws that authorizes with the auth disk and want to carry your auth disk with you to authorize jaws from. If you just want quick and easy portable screen access and do not require a lot of fancy stuff, you might instead consider using nvda from a thumb drive or, if the computer you want to access has internet access, the new free version of sa2go. Neither of these necesitates instdalling video intercepts or authorization - or actually any files on the ost computer. hth Doris At 09:48 PM 2/13/2008 -0500, you wrote: >Hi, all, >I just got a 4 gig thumb drive and want to run JAWS from >it.
