I'm with you. I've just seen my first one of these. A 3 year old HP became
very unstable and eventually wouldn't boot. Turns out something on the main
board was going. With computers as cheap as they are I told my friend to skip
the repare costs and just buy something new.

Hi,
Fascinating. It took 3 years to go from a pc to the garbage dump? A PC does
not go from working fine for 3 years to suddenly landing on lemon hill without
something or someone causing it ta do so. Most Hp's from what I've seen are
generally stable. Worst thing I've ever seen with one of those is having to
reformat it cause of the client's neglegence.

So you had it three years before it started having those problems, that's
some time to have a computer, without problems I wouldthink..

No she didn't. but it was the same name of computer. But it ran
windows 98. It was a bad computer from the word go. We didn't discover
it's problems until we got it online. Just after the 3 year warrantee
ran out.

I don't think she had this one, this one has a quad processor with 2.4
gigabytes ea. 8 gigabytes of ram.. It is an HP Pavilion, with 8 gigabytes of
ram and 750 gigabytes of hard drive.. It also has capabilities to play/burn
DVDs and CDs and can record movies from your TV on to your computer with a
cable and an antennae that came with it, I doubt that windows 98 had those
capabilities, because I had 98 myself one time along with M.E. and Windows XP
also.. I ran 95 a long time ago and 98 also.. I don't think she had this same
computer, don't think it was even out then.. This has too much speed and power
to run Windows 98 for one.. This is really what some poeple run games on like
Evrquest and such, takes a lot of power..

I have thought aboutdoing that since my ram is 8 gigabytes and this
is a brand new computer I just got it last month, it is an HP Pavilion with
plenty of hard drive and speed and power and quad processor with 2.4 gigabytes
of processor each.. I was told Real Speak had larger files than Eloquence, I
ran XP with a little Power Spec computer for 6 and a half years with only 25
megs of ram and 5.10 Jaws version and hardly ever lost speech with it. It goes
sometimes with Windows mail which has to have Windows messenger with it, a tech
support person with HP suggested buying Microsoft Outlook and disabling
messenger and Windows mail, which Windows mail comes with this computer and it
like Outlook express.. Thanks for your suggestion.. Pat6

Thanks, I think I will ask FS about the larger files in Real
Speak that someone told me about and ask if that is causing the problem.. I
definitely will not trade in this computer, I will just put Eloquence back on
if that is speech and it's files that are causing it.

Why not get rid of real speak that comes with Jaws? If
you lose speech then you might have to take back your computer trade
it for a different one.

Subject: [accesscomp] Problems with Vista & Jaws speech
Hi All, Recently I purchased a new computer, with Vista Home
Premium on it and am running Jaws version 10 with Real Speak instead of
Eloquence because I like the sound of it better than Eloquence but was told it
had larger files than Eloquence does. My computer is a HP with 4 quad core AMD
processors 2.4 gigsbytes a piece. I am using Windows mail which has to have
Windows Messenger installed to run this mail which comes iwith Vista so
thoughtI'd try using it since it is similar to Outlook Express which I have
used before. What it is doing is losing speech sometimes in Windows mail. It is
set to do Windows automatic updates and this morning instead of it sitting on
the start menu telling me to press windows key and M to go to the desktop it
was totally shut down on it's own this morning when I first sat down to the
computer, I assumed it had done an automatic update since it is set to do them
every day at 3 a.m. Also Windows Live 1 Care is set to do it's own updates
around 6 a.m. every day.. Usually though it will restart itself, not totally
shut down and turn itself off, I hve never had to happen before this morning.
Also Messenger keeps popping up with a reminder messenge that it is running in
the background, can't seem to ge tit to stay on the sys tray.. I even called HP
tech support and they told me I might have to buy Microsoft OUtlook and take
Messenger off and uninstall Windows Mail and go to using Microsoft OUtlook.. I
have used it before and it is alright, I used it before I got this computer, in
fact.. I can't imagine why I keep losing speech in Windows mail or at the time
when I am trying to close out Windows mail to put it on restart myself for some
reason.. Sometimes when the messenger reminder messenge comes on, it losses
speech there. Also in a website with a combo box, I pressed alt down arrow and
it said open list, but when I down arrowed to choose what I wanted to chooseon
the list there was no sound, and I lost speech again.. I wonder what is going
on? I wonder if the larger files of Relal Speak could be causing this? Could
you advise , if any of you have used Jaws 10 with REal Speak and have a HP
computer that is using Vista HOme Premium, I don't know if the 4 processors
make a differenceor not as far as losing speech with Jaws but got this computer
with the 4 processors and the rest of the package because it was such a good
deal price wise and it was recommended to me as being a great buy by someone
who had worked as a system engineer and who also has had a little experience
with Jaws.. Thank you so much for your heop in advance, any help will be
appreciated with these problems.. Pat Dallas
