[nfbcs] Frequent JAWS crashes when using Microsoft products

[Dr. Denise M Robinson]

Christopher, Do you happen to have a geforce video card? I have discovered
that mine gives a very stable performance with my blind software. Where my
students have issues, I do not. I have discovered this over time so always
order it with my machines. I am sure there are other great video cards too,
but have always been a geforce user.
