[JAWS-Users] Re: Acer laptop question
Hello, I also have a laptop, and there is, in your system tray, or should be, a way to double click on the touch pad, mine is called synaptics pointing device. Then control tab to the device settings page and uncheck it, then tab to okay and space. If you need to reenable it, it's very easy. Just go back to the same place and re enable it. I have mine off most of the time, but when I need help with something, I turn it back on. Good luck, Lois - Original Message - From: jason smith [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: jaws-users-list@googlegroups.com Sent: Tuesday, March 06, 2007 10:47 PM Subject: [JAWS-Users] Re: Acer laptop question Hi Doug, I'm using an Acer Travelmate too, all be it 7 years old smile. I have only really started using it more lately, while I get Jaws put onto the desktops at work. I have Jaws on my home desktop, so haven't really needed to use the laptop much until recently. The mouse keys you refer to, are referred to as the touch-pad. Like you, I sometimes touch them accidently with my wrist. There is a way of turning it on and off. A family member found it in the documentation I got with it. I think it is something like pressing the FN key followed by F8. I am not certain of this though. I haven't tried turning mine off yet, as I have had problems with my unit crashing with Jaws. I therefore need someone to use the touchpad in order to clear the error message and restart the laptop for me. I am thinking of getting an external mouse to plug in and turn off the touchpad. I might be wrong with which function key you press though. Give it a try. If you still have no luck, let me know and I will try and get a family member to check my documentation again for you. My touchpad is very sensitive. Everyone who uses it complain about it. I have had people try and slow it down for me too. Hope this helps.

Is there a way of disabling that mouse pad arrangement??

Yahoo Groups has been bouncing on me, and my in box isn't even close to full. Go figure. This has been happening a lot lately. Anyway, did anyone respond to my question? I've been looking and just can't find the reading interrupt selection anywhere in JAWS 8. It used to be right there under typing interrupt in the user options of the configuration manager. Strange. Chris Feist - The one and only! -Original Message- On Behalf Of Chris Feist Hi folks. I've noticed something odd. In JAWS 8, there is no longer a choice to check reading interrupt in the user options in the configuration manager. The typing interrupt is still there, but not reading. I wonder if this could be why I'm finding it difficult to silence JAWS by hitting a key. For example, when I tab from link to link on a Web page, it will speak the entire link before the next one, and the next. I can't tell what link I'm on unless I sit and wait for JAWS to finish rambling on. And with so many things, JAWS won't stop talking when I hit keys. It completes saying the text, the title of a program, etc, and is determined to finish its sentence. It's very confusing and aggravating. I Always had typing and reading interrupt checked with earlier versions of JAWS to avoid this annoyance. But now in this version I can't find the reading interrupt so I can check it. Has anyone else experienced this? And if so, do you know where the reading interrupt is, or at least how to stop JAWS from rambling on? It's on a brand new super fast computer, so speed definitely isn't' an issue. Thanks.

Can I delete tmp files? I've given this hint before and it's one of the really useful ones that I've picked up over the years. Open the Find Files utility and search for: *.tmp,*.chk,~*.* Note that the items are separated by a comma and no spaces. Also, note that the last item is preceded by a tilde and if you omit this, you'll get hits on every file in your computer, which you most definitely do _not_ want to do. Run this search and when it completes, press Control+A to select all, then the delete key and answer Y to the prompt asking if it's okay to delete everything. Then comes the really good part. Press Alt+F while still in the Find Files utility and save the search to your Desktop. From now on, you can run it regularly to clean up your disk. I've used this for a couple of years with no problems. The second thing I would advise is to download and run ad-aware and get rid of all of that spy crap in your computer.
