Re: questions before installing NVDA

Re: questions before installing NVDA @22 and 23: Thanks, I'll check them out.@25: The difficult thing with Handy Tech displays is that JAWS comes with a pre-installed driver for Handy Tech braille displays, only it seem s to be an outdated one, so you have to download an additional one

Re: questions before installing NVDA

Re: questions before installing NVDA Yes. I think what happened then was FS had a program that enabled braille display developers to have signed drivers before FS would allow them drivers into the product. It was $5000 a year for those braille display developers to get the signed drivers

Re: questions before installing NVDA

Re: questions before installing NVDA Again, JAWS, for me, insofar that I can remember, has not had any problem with display drivers or installing any extra hardware or assistive devices such as braille displays. It has to be said though, I find JAWS to work faster with braille displays

Re: questions before installing NVDA

Re: questions before installing NVDA that is another reason why I don't use Jaws. using most hardware devices like braille displays plane work better with NVDA. No messing with display drivers, no need to mess with a box to add a display to jaws, and the worse thing for me was that it did

Re: questions before installing NVDA

Re: questions before installing NVDA NVDA will automatically detect the Handy tech braille series. I have only the Handy tech Connect 40, and the first time I tried it, I didn't really need to do anything. In fact, I love NVDA's automatic detection of braille displays as opposed to JAWS

Re: questions before installing NVDA Well, each screen reader has its advantages and I have come to the conclusion that none of them is better than any of the two. I use NVDA full time, although I have JAWS 2021 installed in my computer. JAWS doesn't take that many resources on your system
