Hi,
Odds are it's your sound card that's at issue here. Several years ago I worked
on a number of systems that had this problem and the solution was to update the
sound card driver. Give that a try and let us know how it sounds afterwords.
If you still have the problem, I can dig around in my system and see if I have
a driver package that solved it.

Subject: weird speech after installing XP
Hi all. I'm not sure if this is a JAWS thing or not, but ever since I had XP
installed on my seven-plus year old Dell desktop pc, my Eloquence speech has
been a little weird. When I press the "say line", I get a staticy click noise
after the line is done being spoken. Then if I hid a "say current character"
key, I get the character then I get an echoing, statical, fuzzy repetition of
the same character, kind of weird electronic ghost sounds for about two or
three times in a row. Any ideas? Is this JAWS, Eloquence, or my sound card?
Other things don't sound strange, for example audio streams of different things
and the login sound are normal and pure. I am running JAWS 8 so the version is
not the problem.
Thanks in advance.
