This is essentially my experience. Arrowing about too quickly seemed to be
the problem however for a time there was one Web site that was crashing
Jaws. I suspect they had something that was refreshing or doing something to
one of the cursors, I was hearing a ding at about 10 or 15 seconds then
after a couple of minutes Jaws would die. I sent them an e-mail and after
Christmas they seemed to do something to fix it. The ding sound is the same
one one gets when hitting the bottom or top of a document, I wonder if maybe
the mouse cursor was triggering this but because I was using the virtual
cursor in Internet Exploder, Jaws wasn't jumping about with the cursor. Not
sure how that would crash Jaws but the only way I had to get it back was to
reboot the computer.
Interesting possibilities.

Our DELLs at work have SoundMax cards and JAWS often freezes when simply
arrowing through files quickly, or attempting to open a folder or file. It
is interesting that you are thinking this is related to the SoundMax because
we've had no idea what is the problem.

My ThinkPad X300 has what is reported to be a Soundmax. I don't know what is
causing my Jaws to die, something to do with me jumping back and forth with
the arrow keys seems to have something to do with it.

Hi Dale!
I have this freezing on my PC, but not my laptop. And in rare cases I
have a blue screen after the freezing. And it is allways the sound card
driver, that causes the bluescreen. My laptop has a ADI soundmax chip
and the PC a creative Soundblaster X-FI. I am not absolutely sure, but
it seams that, at least for me, it is the sound blaster that causes Jaws
to freeze.
Regards!

I have Windows Vista and Jaws 9 on a new X300 with four gigs of ram
and Jaws freezes for me too. IT does sometimes come back but
frequently the only solution seems to press the power button and
re-boot.
I still have not installed Jaws 10.
So far I have not identified a cause, I suspect sometimes it comes
from arrowing about too quickly although why it happens I am not
sure.

Hi all
Just wondering has anyone found this problem, I could be doing
anything, today I've just been navigating the internet trying to
search in combo boxes, using messenger, and also just generally
navigating web pages, and I find, that sometimes, for absolutely no
reason I can figure out, jaws will just stop talking and can take
some time to start talking again, in order for this to happen I
normally press insert t but sometimes I will just wait, anyone else
finding this problem?
And if so, what did you do to fix it?
I'm running vista home premium.
Thanks in advance,
Kerie Doyle
