Tammy, I wonder if FS asked about the amount of RAM installed on your laptop. JAWS is a memory hog.

Grin! I am running Jaws 17 on a Windows 8.1 laptop. Randomly, Jaws will jam up my computer. I can't do anything with it until it lets me. When it finally gives in, I can get other sounds on it but I have to relaunch Jaws. Ok, I go to the desktop and launch it from there. Every time it pops up the user interface asking if I want to allow this program to make changes to my computer. This is geting very old and annoying! I have already worked with Microsoft accessibility and FS. I had esset, Norton and Avast removed from my system. The only anti virus I have is windows defender. FS upgraded my Jaws from 14 to 17. The problem 1st started with 14. Problem continues. Ok, I would love to hear your opinions. Thanks so much!
