Does your computer's have a Celeron processor? This kind of processor has a very small cache, which often is resulting by very slow responding from the computer's keyboard. It can help a bit, having enough ram, at least 1 mb for a XP system, but it will never be good, before the processor/motherboard has been changed to another type, probably an Intel I3 board. I don't know if this really is your problem, but it seam's to me to be such a kind.

They sound very useful for speeding up my computer. However, what I am particularly referring to, is the time delay between pressing a letter key and hearing JAWS echo it. Sometimes, JAWS seems to not even know that I have pressed a key. I've cleaned my keyboard, with the compressed air and got a lot of dog hair out of it. May be it's just wearing out? I had thought that this was just a Jaws problem, but now, I'm not so sure. Many thanks for any thoughts on this matter!
