Well this is quite interesting. A few times when jaws was starting I heard an
error message stating that colors have been changed to windows 7 basic. It also
mentioned that some programs may not function correctly and that there is a
mirror driver causing the problem. I sent a query to FS about this and was
advised to contact support by phone to try and figure out what was going on. I
had my wife here who could see what was happening since I only heard the
message on a few occasions and she can see it every time that jaws starts.
After talking to support it is determined that there is no real problem. When
jaws starts it turns off some windows features to eliminate problems and when
jaws is stopped everything is automatically turned back on. The support person
had no idea that even a message is displayed. This happens before jaws actually
starts. There is no explanation why on a few occasions it was read to me.
As far as the mirror driver jaws must load one to capture the screen. At least
I now feel better knowing that there is not any problem with my machine or jaws.
As far as the desktop widgets that on rare occasion are read, he suggested that
I remove them. The weather one is interesting and My wife does use it so I will
let it in place.
