Ok, that was it!But unfortunately it is more and more clear that I need to reinstall Windows, because no Eloquence synthesizers appear in the list of SAPI sinths.
It is not detected by Jaws neither.Unfortunately I can say that Window Eyes doesn't have an option for setting Jaws key layout, because the most important keys can't be changed.
Using Insert+T for reading the title instead of saying the time is not so important, because these keys should be also changeable by each user.
But the most important keys like insert+Tab for reading the current control, or insert+Page down/page up or home/end, are not working like in Jaws.
I haven't tested it yet, but I am sure that routing the mouse cursor to the pc cursor and moving the mouse cursor can't also be made to work like in Jaws, and this is a big issue.

To run the Eloquence synthesizers, you go to SAPI in the speech synthesizerdialog, then press Tab once. You will be in a list of SAPI synthesizers,and the Eloquence voices are in that list. Reed is the best one to use for U.S. English. If you need to switch back to the DECtalk synthesizer, it is the first one in the main list starting with D. I like Eloquence, but find that since it is old and running through SAPI 4, it is somewhat less stable than DEC Access, which is being driven directly by Window-Eyes. So I switchbetween the two, depending on whether I need stability that day or not. As for the keymap, it is all configurable, and they may have made somemistakes. Also, they can't emulate all of JAWS's functions; the JAWS keymapis an approximation based on what W-E contains.

I've installed it and I've seen that it started with the Dec Talk as a default voice sinthesizer, and I don't like how it sounds. I've seen that the Window Eyes package contains the Eloquence sinthesizer, but when I tried to choose it from the list of sinthesizers available, I've seen no Eloquence there.I might have a problem with my computer, because even after installing theEloquence common modules and Eloquence for English language manually from the Window Eyes package, even though it installed successfully, I can't detect Eloquence with Jaws neither (and if I remember well, in older versions of Window Eyes, Eloquence was a SAPI sinth). Do you know if I can find somewhere a "from Jaws to Window Eyes" description of hotkeys? For example, I have set Window Eyes to use the Jaws key layout, but it doesn't seem to work as expected, because I have pressed Insert+Tab (my favourite hotkey), but instead of telling the name and position of the control that has the focus, it tells something else.
