HI I noticed something weird. Whenever my modem goes on to dial up jaws stutters. When I click the icon on my desktop that dials up, jaws says: dialing; cancel button; but why does it speak with so much stuttering? The modem makes a clicking sound when it dials and the moment it makes that clicking sound and jaws talks, jaws stutters a lot. When the modem is dialing and I press insert+up arrow for instance jaws says cancel button without stuttering. Its only that second when the modem clicks to dial that jaws stutters a lot. If I'm correct, if the modem makes that clicking sound its picking up the phone so to speak the same as if I would pick up the hand set to make a call. Can it be that the modem takes up a lot of memory? Or does the modem interfere with the functioning of the synthesizer? -- JFW related links: JFW homepage: http://www.freedomscientific.com/ Scripting mailing list: http://lists.the-jdh.com/listinfo.cgi/scriptography-the-jdh.com JFW List instructions: To post a message to the list, send it to jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe from this mailing list, send a message to jfw-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the word unsubscribe in the subject line.
