Hey people,
The comp I'm currently using isn't reading back what I type, and I'm not sure why. Furhtermore, when I go to the Start Menu and try to press enter on the item I want, nothing happens. Does anyone know what might be wrong and how to correct it?
Thanks,
Becky

probably a virus? or have you ever changed your jaws to read none?
Raaj.

I just tried to bring up the JAWS menu to check, and I can't even get that to come up! What the hell?!

Do JAWS repair or reinstall.

Have you tried restarting the computer?

Not yet; think I'll do that now.

Well, that worked, for now. Thanks, everyone, for all your help.

To do a jaws repair if you need to do it, just run the exe file that the set up is in and follow the prompts.
Good luck.

Easier to insert the program disc and select repair Jaws, or reinstall it, then go to help and select check for updates depending on the version you have installed.

Check to make sure you aren't running a laptop keyboard and jaws thinks you are running a desktop keyboard, or visa versa.
Keyboards are somewhere in the basic options I think.
