[Trainer-talk] video card question

[Scott Blanks]

Hello,

I can't say with absolute certainty, but neither JAWS nor Window-Eyes should experience any trouble interacting with these cards. JAWS no longer has video intercept issues in Windows 7, so long as you utilize the latest build of JFW.  Window-Eyes has generally been more forgiving to a wider range of graphics chips and has never really had a reputation for this type of freezing or loss of speech.

Good luck with your new laptop,

hi,

in the past, there were problems with ati video cards and speech.
my current laptop has nvidia chip/video and the only choice for a new laptop i am interested in will be the ati video.
does anyone know if problems will occur with the ati brand now?
