Hi, For some strange reason, I have lost the ability of using SAPI 5 voices. This also affected my K1000 in that it does not speak any more. I know it is there, but, I cannot get them activated again. I tried it with Narrator without a luck. I tried it on Jaws no luck either. I have not installed or uninstalled anything related to speech recently. Would anyone have any idea what this could be? ----------- Thank you.
