You only need one F S mirror driver on your computer. No hurry, when you get a

I have three of those mirror drivers.

Is that why the three drivers?

Hi Jim,
I don't know why but, whenever you make a hardware change it screws up the
Jaws activation you have to re-activate Jaws. I was experimenting with
sound cards, kept asking FS to reset my activation keys low behold, I
received a phone call from FS wanting to know what was going on!
Glad this was posted to the list. My computer was in the shop a couple of
weeks ago to replace my optical drive. When I got home I didn't have any
activations left. I didn't know what to say to get more because I know
they're real sticky about that, but I do have three again now.
Have you contacted Twitter? Marilyn

I don't believe that Jaws uses them in Windows XP.
Pretty sure they are used in Vista And Win7 only, and most likely Windows 8
when it comes out.
