Hi,`
Thanks for the suggestion. I will give that a try the next time it
happens. To be honest, I thought that I tried that and it didn't make
any difference. Maybe I didn't do the procedure correctly. I will
however try that again.
Take care.

hi Lennie, I've never had Jaws freeze after a hibernation wake
up. However, sometimes, jaws will freeze and can't be brought back
sometimes. What I do sometimes is, as long as I can get Nvda to
start, I will go to the task manager with control shift escape, then
control tabbing until I get to the processes tab, once in the
processes tab, tab once, and you should see a list of apps that are
running. hit the letter J and see if you see something like,
jfw.exe. That's Jaws that is running in the background. tab a couple
times until you see something like end task button. his the spacebar
and tab again to hit end task button a second time. that is the
confirmation to shut down a program. once you hit end task button a
second time, close the task manager with alt f4 and then try turning
jaws on again. Sometimes this works for me if Jaws gets stuck in
the background.
Let me know if you have any problems and I'll try my best to help.
Have a nice day.

Subject: [JAWS-Users] Jaws not talking after hibernation
Hi,
I think that I have a problem that does not occur all the time. I
am using Jaws12, window XP.
I usually shut off my desktop computer by putting it in
hibernation. I have been doing this for as long as I have XP operating system.
However, lately when I come out of hibernation, Jaws does not
respond. This does not happen all the time, but when it does, it is
disconcerting.
I start NV DA to try to figure out what is going on, but no luck. I
had my wife look at the monitor and nothing stands out.
I tried to kill Jaws with jawsKey+WindowKey+F4 (is that the correct
shortcut to kill Jaws) and I use my shortcut key to start Jaws, but
nothing happens.
So using NV DA, I restart my computer and as it is starting to
shutdown, Jaws suddenly wakes up! By then it is too late and I have
to wait for Jaws to come back when the computer is restarted.
Is there anything that I can do to get around this problem after I
come out of hibernation? Any suggestions or ideas will greatly be
appreciated. I don't want to have to do a complete shutdown each
time I get off my computer and keep doing restarts.
Thanks in advance and take care.
Lennie
