We have a roaming profile for the JAWS machine with all that stuff pre-done. :) Sounds like I won't have to make any changes other than uninstalling the current program and tossing on DF. :) We're going to build a test lab. :) Thank you all for your stories - it is very much appreciated! :-) Thanks, Gretchen Garcia MCLD IT Services [log in to unmask] http://www.mcldaz.org "There are 10 types of people in this world.

Mr. Guilford's comments are correct, though - to avoid users having to configure software or answer registration questions, we pre-configure the default user profile so that JAWS and ZoomText and everything else are already set up the way we want them before the machines are frozen.

DeepFreeze doesn't seem to have any negative effects on any software I can think of providing permanent changes are not required for routine operation of that software. Even then, as you've read, a "thawed" drive can be created where permanent changes are allowed. DeepFreeze is so transparent to OS operations that, should you forget to thaw your Program Files drive as Administrator, you could run through a program installation successfully only to find your work wiped clean on system restart! ---------------------------------------------- James Guilford, I.T.

Does it work? :-) What about Kurzweil 3000? Thanks, Gretchen Garcia MCLD IT Services [log in to unmask] http://www.mcldaz.org "There are 10 types of people in this world.
