Ifyou have xp professional on the computer, that is why. You need Xp home 
edition or upgrade to jaws professional. If you don't, you only can run a 
jaws demo. The error is due to your operating system being xp professional.

Subject: [nabs-l] about JAWS

Hello,

I recently downloaded JAWS on my computer which had a crash last week. My
computer is running fine now that I have installed everything. I was able to
activate JAWS with one of the JAWS license keys that I still have when I got
my laptop and the JAWS disks. However, whenever I start JAWS, the following
message is displayed:
"JAWS
This application is not authorized for Windows XP Professional, Windows
2000, or Windows NT 4.0
operating systems.
Contact your local distributor or Freedom Scientific at 727-803-8000 or
sales at freedomscientific.com for information about updating your product for
these operating
systems.
OK "

when I click OK on the message, it goes back to the tiring 40-minute mode.
What should I do? do I just call the JAWS people and let them know of this?

also, is it possible to update my license to be used on windows xp for free?
if not, how much would this cost?

BTW, I guess I learned something else, because I didn't know JAWS licenses
could be specifically designed for different windows systems.

any help is appreciated.

thanks,
Humberto
