thank you for that consideration good luck with the new machine, a note I have 4 cores and 8 Gb of ram and am using 23 percent of my available memory while using only 1 percent of CPU capability most of the time, so getting the large quantities of ram is a good thing. s take care, elf

Dear inthane, You're being very helpful, but save your effort for now. I was wrong about part of what I stated re my custom computer. It is an AMD/Ati set-up; but the mother board is integrated. The Ati graphics card is attached and has its own controllers and chipset. The builder thinks that ATI works better and faster with the AMD; and that this is a faster combo than the Intel integrated boards- which he thinks are quite cheap and shabby. Just his opinion, but you've been so willing to discuss that I wanted to give you the full scoop- to the extent that my non-techy non-builder non-hardware savvy brain is capable ;) Cher -----Original Message----- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of inthaneelf Sent: Thursday, February 14, 2013 1:33 AM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Which Graphics Card is better with JFW? I wouldn't actually need to "tear it up" smile just figuratively speaking if I said it that way, really means I would kick her off the thing long enough for me to track down the cip set name, since its the default on a laptop and is near impossible to change I can find it out. and this week I wouldn't even have to kick her off the comp, since she is out of town visiting with her mother and celebrating the Asian new year I wish to get a more expensive card myself one of these days, I want to join a cloud computing arrangement and offer the unused GPU's time up to it, maybe something like SETI, and another science foundation's work. laters, inthane -----Original Message----- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of Don & Cher Bosch Sent: Monday, February 11, 2013 5:51 PM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Which Graphics Card is better with JFW? Dear inthane, I'm getting a separate graphics card- and heard some recommendation to that effect a long while ago. Sorry, that I don't remember the specifics, and hope that the person who said it knew whereof he spoke. The guy building the computer likes separate graphics cards also, so that reinforced the decision to go that way. Don't tear up your wife's computer ;) Thanks for the info- will write back if any problem arises.

I have 4 computers here and the only one I have had any trouble with in this area is my wife's AMD with a built in AMD video card. and I'm not even trying to say that all the built in AMD cards are troublesome, just the one she has, I'll go break into her machine and find out which one its using if you want that info. but her AMD matching, with built in video card has some small troubles that seem to be (from all I and FS can determine) troubles with this setup. regards, inthane -----Original Message----- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of Don & Cher Bosch Sent: Thursday, February 07, 2013 6:29 PM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Which Graphics Card is better with JFW? Thanks for the suggestion Rick- unfortunately not very much there. I tried both graphics card and video card- I'm confused at this point whether they are different or if the term has just changed ;) It was a good suggestion though, and I forget that that source of info is available.

Last time I bought an Nvidia G-Force card on an AMD processor, and I feel that JFW has not lived as happily as might be on this computer and am wondering whether the graphics card is a factor.
