Darren, no help I know but I also had this problem with JAWS 8 after installing a few programs such as Kurzweil 1000 and some games using sapi voices. I never did solve the problem. To be honest I don't use the real speak voices with JAWS so it has not been that much of a priority for me.

I've recently downloaded and been playing AudioQuake, which uses the Sapi voices, either the sam variety o the realspeek voices. All was going fine until today. I have no idea what's hapened, but the realspeek voices don't work, even when using jaws 8. All devices are working correctly, I can play music, jaws operates fine but the realspeek and sapi voices are just totally dead. I've reinstalled them from the realspeek disc but with no changes. Any ideas? Cheers Darren __________ NOD32 2921 (20080304) Information __________ This message was checked by NOD32 antivirus system. http://www.eset.com
