Hi all, today I was going to try out my Apex as a braille display
with Jaws 17 on a windows 10 laptop. I downloaded the braille
driver and USB driver without any issues. I installed the braille
driver and when I was trying to set up the USB driver the
computer stopped talking to me. I ended up turning off my laptop
with the power button and restarted it. When it came back up it
did the windows starting sound but Jaws never started talking. I
got my mum to come and have a look and my computer and she got me
through the log on screen and then saw Jaws start. Even though
the jaws window was up there was no speech. I tried to start
Narrator but I couldn't get it to work. I then opened a game I
have on my desktop which uses the same voice as narrator and it
works fine. When I tried to start Narrator my mum had gone so I
don't know if anything came up on screen. I may have had the
command for Narrator wrong because it has been a long time since
I have had the need to use it.
I am running windows 10 and Jaws 17 latest version. I downloaded
the drivers today from humanware so they are the latest. The
humanware website says it works with windows 10 and Jaws 17.
I'm hoping someone has a suggestion to get Jaws talking again
because I need to get the braille display to work for a test I
want to do.
Thanks.
From Shaz.
