Hi all. I'm not sure if this is a JAWS thing or not, but ever since I had XP installed on my seven-plus year old Dell desktop pc, my Eloquence speech has been a little weird. When I press the "say line", I get a staticy click noise after the line is done being spoken. Then if I hid a "say current character" key, I get the character then I get an echoing, statical, fuzzy repetition of the same character, kind of weird electronic ghost sounds for about two or three times in a row. Any ideas? Is this JAWS, Eloquence, or my sound card? Other things don't sound strange, for example audio streams of different things and the login sound are normal and pure. I am running JAWS 8 so the version is not the problem. Thanks in advance.
