Hi it is jaws 4.02 that runs on xp not 4.01 Now the client was not fed miss information here. In earlyer version of jaws that still supported the dectalk pc if you had the drivers for dos loaded you could use the express as a dectalk pc. I saspect this is what was being done in this case. Now to avoid problems the lowist version is 4.51 because the video channing support worked as it should.

Ota Sent: Monday, February 27, 2006 8:24 AM To: jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: RE: Looking for XP Drivers to Support Dectalk Express If he has the operating system of Windows XP Home or Professional he will need to at least upgrade to version 4.01 (I believe), check the Freedom Scientific website at: http://www.freedomscientific.com/ Though, I would advise your client/friend to upgrade to the latest version which is 7.0. Again, you'll have to check pricing with Freedom Scientific for upgrading and suggest that he also purchase a software maintenance agreement (SMA). As far as I know, JAWS has always supported the DEC-Talk speech synthesizer and I don't know where or what kind of information someone has been feeding him.

My next question is, what is the lowest version of JFW that will support Dectalk on XP? Our client is using JFW 3.5 and seems reluctant to upgrade; I'm thinking he may have to upgrade if he wants to use JFW on XP let alone Dectalk.
