Mike:

You are right that Windows 7 and higher will not accept Openbook 7 but needs Openbook 8. I have 8 on my Windows 7 laptop but didn't need a special disk to get it to work.

Hi David,

To my knowledge Openbook 7 will not work with Windows7.  From what I
understand Openbook8 is the earliest version you can use & if you are
running a 64 bit system you have to get a special 64 bit Openbook8 64 bit
disk from Freedom Scientific.  So, being your're running Windows 8 I would
think the same is true.  If I'm wrong, someone please correct me.
Take care.

Subject: [JAWS-Users] JAWS and OpenBook version 7


Hi all!  I know that you will be able to help me.  I have a new Asus
laptop with Windows 8.1 and using JAWS 16.0.1925, latest update.  When
I install OpenBook version 7, it seems to install Okay.  When I go to
launch the application, the IBM voice never speaks, and JAWS says
nothing in OpenBook.  If I turn on Narator, I here an error message in
OpenBook saying "OpenBook is not responding."  If I could get JAWS to
talk in the OpenBook window, I might be able to figure out more what
is going on, but I can't.  Why do you think that OpenBook 7 is not
responding if my installation seems to go Okay?  Thanks in advance
