[Trainer-Talk] {Spam?} RE: {Spam?} Re: Windows computer, Jaws, and gaming shortcut interference

Hello All:

You will find in most cases, if you press WINDOWS + G the problem will go
away.  Notice I said in most cases.  I have seen rare situations where this
does not work.  

It seems that pressing WINDOWS + G accidentally turns on a game mode.  That
is when the G key will not work.  Pressing it again turns it off.

Asanda,

I have encountered this problem with JAWS several times. It seems to happen
randomly and it is positively maddening, totally bizarre and one which I
have no logical explanation for. For me closing and restarting JAWS seems to
make the problem go away, allowing the G key to work as it should.
