Hi Brandon,
The "read me" file on the CD (which btw is dated 7/30/98 LOL) says that
the directory <SETUP> contains the files to install JFW 3.2. Run the
Setup.exe
program contained in this directory to install JFW."
JAWS version 2.00.29 is also on the CD but the read me file says that it can
not be installed directly from the CD.
Here's a link to that SETUP directory:

i figured as much. well since the version of eloquence can’t be used all i
would need is just the installer from the cd or the cd itself. sure that
would work in a vm if it’s not too much to ask. Think the demo on that
version was also 40 minutes back then.
Maybe putting it in a site such as sendspace or dropbox would work if
possible. Don’t really need the auth disk.

I can confirm what Stan has told you here. I too have JFW 3.2, and the
program itself is on a CD. The floppy is simply to authorize the copy of
JAWS. But it's not something you could easily send electronically. It's
not like the installers we download today where the whole thing is one
file. Furthermore, most of us are running 64-Bit JAWS these days, and I
don't think you could make a sixteen year old version of Eloquence work
with a 64-bit anything. (The files on this CD are all dated 1998.) Perhaps
I am wrong.

Hi Dave and everyone,
I didn’t get a copy of my 1st post back in my Jfw support list folder so
don’t know if it made it through to the list or not. So here goes again
with an update:
“I just now found the JFW 3.2 software CD. The case is about an inch
thick. It indeed has a CD disk inside. There's a 2 sided section with
braille instructions that say to insert the CD and run D:\setup. then to
insert a diskette when prompted. It looks like there's a place for a
diskette inside the CD case but I must have stored it somewhere else. I
guess now I'll rummage through the closet and try to locate that
diskette.”
update:
I found 3 floppy disks with braille labels that say:
JFW
authorize
3.2
henter-joyce
I’m sure one of them came inside the CD case I described. I’m getting
ready to put the CD in my PC and see what’s on it. I have an external USB
floppy drive...
