I'm not sure, but you might try going into the options menu in JAWS 9, under Basics, and see if "automatically start JAWS is checked. If so, uncheck it and unload JAWS with Insert f4. Then load JAWS 10, go under "Options, Basics" and check the "start JAWS automatically" check box. 
You might also look in your startup folder to see if JAWS 9 is there ans set to start when Windows starts. I know. I don't use Vista so I am not sure where this folder is located in this operating system. 

Hope this helps.

Subject: [gui-talk] jaws version problems

Hi.
was playing around with real tech audio manager, and lost all my sound.
a sighted friend got my sound back for me.
now the questions below.
well, got my sound and jaws back, but was not able to use the updatte
feature, as i had uninstalled jaws 10.
now, had to download it, and got jaws 9.0 as well.
but when my system starts and jaws starts, instead of loading version 10, it
is still loading version 9.
so how can i make version 10 the default on my windows vista system.
tried looking in default programs and setting defaults, but cannot find any
thing.
is uninstalling version 9, would this fix this problem.
or tried loading jaws 10, from the desk top and the programs folder, but
refusing to go to version 10 and had a look at the version number.
still version 9.
really strange, after the real tech audio manager software, was blocking all
sound and speech.
anyone had this problem before in windows vista and how to fix this one.
cheers Marvin.
