Just unload JAWS and restart it or reboot your computer. All that using the /default flag does is to load JAWS using only the files in the shared files folder, bypassing anything you've modified. To do the repair, put the 7.0 CD into your hard drive and allow it to autostart and select repair.

Well, you could _try_ 32-bit temporarily to see if that corrects this specific problem, then set it back. That way, you'd at least know if that's your issue or not and save any further looking. - Original Message - From: Sarah [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: jaws-users-list@googlegroups.com
