JFW 6.0 does not directly support the DecTalk USB. FS Tech Support knows
how to deal with this. JAWS 6.1 and later do support the DecTalk USB.

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?
