I do not lose the connection, the computer reports that there is not a
connection while I am on line.

have you tried another cat 5 data cable from the computer to the router or
from
the computer to the all in one modem if you have one?
i have this problem right now. it loses the connection almost every day when
i
turn the computer on. i have to replace my cables about every 4 years
because
of corrosion on the connections. which i haven't done yet.
***
i forgot where the actual command prompt file is.
but if you go to it , open a context menu and run as administrator. then if
jaws works with a command prompt
type in sfc /scannow to see if windows can find and replace the corupted
files.
you could try to do a repair there.
in your case it might ask for your install disk though.
but its worth a try if you haven't tried this yet. it takes about 10 minutes
to
complete.

Subject: [JAWS-Users] new computer or not
First I really do not want to purchase a new machine at this time. The
problem that I have with my network drivers microsoft can not correct. The
computer is a 2009 machine running win 7 32 bit. The corrupted driver can
not be updated or reinstalled. the manufacturer no longer has a 32 bit
driver on their web site. One thing that I am not sure of is if I could use
my origional 32 bit windows install to run a repair and keep all of my files
and programs. If that would work I would go that way. Microsoft is willing
to create a product key and download the 64 bit os and install it on my
machine.I hate to go through the work to reinstall programs and try to
recover product keys and all emails on the new os. Now for me it would be
the same amount of work if I purchased a new desktop.
