What does TALKS/JAWS mean?
Plain English please.
Text to speech has been around for years.

Windows comes with a basic screen reader called Narrator, which reads text on the screen aloud and describes some events (such as an error message appearing) that happen while you're using the computer.

Dragon is quite popular as a solution as well.  I know that the C.N.I.B. offers the package to those who need it in Canada for free, there may be a local organization that will do the same.
Evil is an exact science.
