My computer had been starting slowly for a long time. I was having trouble
with Office 365, so I called the Microsoft Disability
Desk. The lady who helped me with Office 365 also helped me to speed up my
computer at startup by disabling a number of programs in msconfig. I don't
recommend looking at this lightly because doing so without knowing what you
are doing could keep your computer from starting properly. once I understood
what she was doing, things indeed went much faster, even though I put back
a few programs I wanted. Thus, your issues may involve JAWS by itself, be in
combination wwith other programs, or not JAWS related at all.

My computer started to take a long time to start up after I went from
window eyes and installed Jaws 18.

Laura, you are lucky your computer is ready to use so quickly.
Mine takes almost 2 minutes before I hear, "JAWS Home Use." Drives me
nuts!

Hello,
Jaws 18 and Windows 10 ..
Normally when I turn the computer on I wait approximately 10 to 20 seconds
and then Jaws will say "Jaws home use" and I'm ready to go.
Yesterday, when I turned the computer on after about 5 or 10 seconds Jaws
said "Jaws for windows, overlay windows zero, overlay windows zero,
overlay
windows zero". Then, after another 5 or 10 seconds Jaws said "Jaws home
use" and I was ready to go.
I've had this computer for almost four months and this has never happened.
Has anybody experienced anything like this and is this something to be
concerned about? Thanks for any input.
Laura
