[gui-talk] JAWS and 64 bit Operating Systems

[Baracco, Andrew W]

The important thing here is the operating system.  JAWS and Window Eyes will
not run on a 64 git operating system.

I had the same experience.  HP told me that the 64 bit would run but was
sure to crash at times.  I chose to exchange my computer for a 32 bit.  I,
too, had to pay more for the 32bit.  It is safer to exchange computers.
