Thanks for the info, guys.  Dave, I'm sorry for your pain two weeks ago in 
regards to your statement; I can empathize with your frustrations.  But I know 
you are a techee when it comes to fixes, so don't cut yourself short.  I just 
wish I had some knowledge about fixing things and how things work.  Honestly, 
I'm too scared of screwing something up and make things even worse.  I know 
just enough to sabatoge my entire system! (grin)  I'd rather pay to have an 
expert work on the issue to get it right since it is evidently unique.  But, my 
friend, no one around here (Jackson, MS) knows anything about this type of 
equipment when JAWS is involved.

I'm waiting for Freedom Scientific to respond, and I'll hear what they say 
before uninstalling anything.  I'll keep you guys posted.  Thanks again,  SLB

Stacy,
 
Before you do the install with "removal of shared components" please, please, 
please backup all your 
documents and settings\<username>\application data\freedom 
scientific\jaws\<version #>settings/enu files to somewhere so that you can 
bring them back in after the new install.
 
Then bring them in, a few at a time, leaving the default.xxx files for the very 
last, since the default.jsb and default .jcf seem to be the ones that cause the 
most problems.
 
Just my advice learned from a very, very painful experience two weeks ago.
 
Dave

Reinstall jaws. When uninstalling, uninstall jaws and all shared components, 
then reinstall it from scratch. This usually happens if some  files relating to 
the video drivers are updated or altered, or randomly by JAWS for no apparent 
reason.
 
HTH, D!J!X!

I know I don't have to express my frustrations, but I'm at a loss here.  
Restoring to two weeks ago didn't work.  I read some posts last night which 
offered some suggestions--one was to go to the JAWS menus to enter on the 
install the Video Intercept, but then I got an error message that says that it 
was unable to fix due to something about not locating a "chain" or something 
like that.  I recall doing this last year as well with no results.  If it's not 
a software issue for some reason, could it be a problem with the video card or 
the jack where the monitor plugs in?  I've reset the unity gain and such on the 
FW 1884, but I'm sure it has nothing to do with the video.  
The monitor works fine because I hooked it up to another PC.  Other than 
installing everything, which is a last resort, do you guys have any 
suggestions?  I'm not a techee, but since I have no monitor, none of my sighted 
friends are of any help.  I'm going to keep looking on line for other 
solutions.  Thanks for listening,  SLB
