Sorry, I don't think the shortcut key is automatically set if you
install JAWS from the CD. If it were, and you already had ctrl-alt-j
set for another version of JAWS, since you can indeed have more than one
version of JAWS on any one computer, confusion would be the inevitable
result. I always must manually set the shortcut key. When i've
checked, beforehand there was no shortcut ctrl-alt-j automatically
filled in.

If you installed JAWS from the CD, it is automatically assigned the
shortcut key Alt-Control-J. If this keystroke combination doesn't
work for you, you can create your own JAWS shortcut key by following
these steps:
1. Launch the Desktop by pressing Windows key-M.
2. Press J repeatedly until you land on the JAWS icon.
3. Press Alt-Enter to bring up the JAWS Properties page.
4. Tab to the Shortcut key field, and type in the shortcut key
combination of your choice, like Alt-Control-J or whatever other
combination you prefer.
5. Tab to Apply button, hit Space, then tab around again to the Okay
button and hit Space. That's it. Now, when you press Alt-Control-J
or whatever shortcut key you assigned, JAWS will be launched. HTH.
