HI Folks,

I have a slight problem here.  I installed my DecTalk USB on my 
computer today.  I am running Windows xp home edition and JAWS 6.0.  I 
followed the instructions in the DecTalk USB manual.  I connected the 
USB cable to the BecTalk and then to my computer with the DecTalk 
turned off.  I then started my computer and turned the DecTalk on.  The 
new hardware install wizard came up saying that the DecTalk USB had 
been found.  I then inserted the cd that came with the DecTalk into the 
cd drive and followed the prompts to the end of the install.  The 
install wizard said the install was complete and the device was ready 
to use.  However, I can not get Jaws 6.0 to recognize the DecTalk.  I 
have done two repairs of JAWS and still the Dectalk does not show up 
anywhere.  In the DecTalk manual it says something about configuring 
the communications port.  Did any of you that are using the DecTalk USB 
have to do this?  If so I need some step by step instructions on how to 
do this.  I was under the impression that Windows xp was plug and play 
for new hardware.  I didn't have to do much of anything when I 
installed a new printer and zip drive several months ago.  So, any 
suggestions about what I need to get the DecTalk USB to work with JAWS 
6.0?
