Russell,
I believe that, as of Jaws 11, the PowerBraille display drivers were changed
so they now run off of a parallel port.

Subject: [JAWS-Users] JAWS11 WINDOWS 7 AND BRAILLE DISPLAYS
I am running jaws11, windows 7, and office 7 on an HP Pavilion laptop. I
have an old Braille display which now connects to my old computer with a
serial cable.
Since the laptop does not have a serial port, I bought a usb 9 pin male
adapter hoping to get my Braille display, a powerbraille 40 to work with
my
new laptop.
It will not work. JAWS tech support seemed clueless.
Is there a work-around? or will I have to run this laptop without a
Braille
display, unless I buy a new one?
Respectfully,
Russell J. Thomas, Jr.
