Eleanor,Have you tried installing Jaws on your netbook with the original installation file on a card? What does it say when you try?

Certainly thank you. If anyone on the list can suggest an effective means by which I might obtain a list of what is running on each of my computers perhaps you would be kind enough to tell me of this, otherwise I will of course go through the labourious work of doing this manually.

I have the same programmes on my netbook as on the computer james reinstalled to. I have no reason to believe that my computer is not properly set up as it was set up for me at the time of purchase.

I think you needs to make sure they are properly set up and not running conflicting programmes or set up's, then your software should load up ok.

Actually I think I have the same problem with Magic too!!!

It simply would not install and messed up my settings and old screenreader to some extent. I was unable to get to the bottom of the reason for this. All other versions of JAWS up to that one and since installed OK, as does most other software with the exception of Windows XP Sp3. BFN, John. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Eleanor Burke" <eleanorburke@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Monday, December 21, 2009 1:20 PM Subject: [access-uk] Re: Jaws 10 Problem with InstallationI did indeed have Sight and Sound spend many many hours on my computer to get Windows XP and all my programmes and files restored. It was as the Director of the company would say, beyond their obligations. However, I still have a netbook with the same problem!!! I cannot install Jaws 10 to it. It would most likely require a total reinstallation of OS and all myprogrammes etc on the netbook too but this is crazy. Odd though how I hadthe problem with two systems.

Did Sight and Sound give you an idea as to what was wrong with your computer that could be hampering the JAWS installation? Although strictly general technical support for computers is probably beyond the remit of S&S, I would have thought a company which deals with computer products and particularly with people with disabilities on a daily basis, and by the very nature of computer products often having inter-dependencies, that they could have at least pointed you somewhat in the right direction. It could be one of many things: * A conflicting program such as another screen reader or access technology * A required Windows or platform update that is missing or an incorrect version * A computer setting that is preventing the installation or one or its routines from completing * Access controls This isn't a criticism of S&S by any means, but it does make it very hard to diagnose the problem (and more so as I don't have JAWS and know little of its quirks) without a rough idea of what could be wrong to begin with. S&S undoubtedly sell many products to many people, and equally so must have had many support requests over the years, so perhaps someone there has come across this before and could advise from direct experience? H.I have been told by Sight and Sound that the problem with my installation of Jaws 10 is related to my computers having problems rther than with Jaws 10. It is fair to say that Sight and Sound did get Jaws 10 working on one of my computers but I have a netbook and I cannot install it on that either!!! I did not purchase my computers from the same place nor did I purchase them at the same time. This leaves me very puzzled that I havetwo computers supposedly 'faulty' and not Jaws 10. My software was purchased back in September and Istill cannot install this product on my NC10!!!! I do have Jaws 9.0 on the Netbook and had no problem installing it. Very strange. I do have a dongle and I think it is possible to run Jaws 10 from the dongle though I do not see why I should have to do thisif my choice is to have the prodjuct installed. Anyone else experiencedproblems like this?
