One thing you could try is to go to your Jaws default configuration manager,
then to set options and then to synsethizer options.
Tab to, allow wave files with synsethizer and check it. Press enter and

Hi Jerry,
If you are going to buy a new computer off-the-shelf,
then expect to buy it with Vista already loaded.
There may still be some XP machines out there, but they will be hard to find.
A word of caution, spend a little extra money, and get a machine with
something more than Vista home basic.
Windows XP supplies Narrator. It won't do everything, but often I
can repair JAWS or get it running again.
