Hi Caroline
My suggestion is that you should try putting in more memory (RAM) into =
your
machine.
Hope this helps.

Hello,
I have recently installed an SB Live 5.1 sound card on my Windows 98 SE=
PC
running Jaws 5. We only installed the
drivers, not the accompanying software, to save cluttering up my PC
unnecessarily, as I am really only interested in the
multi-channel capabilities of the card. I now have multi-channel sound=
,
which is fine, but there is a problem with
Eloquence. It works fine when I first boot the PC, but after a few min=
utes
it starts to stutter and takes longer to respond to keystrokes, and thi=
s
gets more noticeable the longer I use the PC. I remember that some oth=
er
people have experienced this problem, and would be interested to know t=
he
best way to solve it. I had a look on the FS web site and found that a=
replacement Eloq.jls driver file is available which has improved matter=
s
slightly, but the stuttering still occurs to a lesser extent.
I have also tried DecAccess 32 in the hope that this speech engine migh=
t
take up less processing power and so might be a workable alternative, b=
ut
the stuttering was just as noticeable.
I have heard that Gateway produced some drivers for the Sound Blaster c=
ards
which are supposed to remove the crackling problem under XP, but I'm
reluctant to try these unless someone can confirm that they also help t=
he
stuttering problem in Windows 98.
Through my former sound card, an AWE 64, Eloquence did not stutter but =
was
slightly garbled at the beginning of lines when cursoring up and down
through a document or list of files. Its performance was definitely no=
t as
bad as with the new sound card though.
I'd very much appreciate any help,
Caroline Ford.
