When I used Window-Eyes demo, I used the ETI Eloquence Synthesizer, and now and again it crashed, and, on some occasions, I cannot use Window-Eyes again until I reboot my machine. However, since using JAWS 8 demo, I've had nothing like that since I'm using the integrated Eloquence synthesizer. Hope that helps.
