Hi Jim, Actually, Windows 7 comes with Sapi 5.4. Sapi 5.4 is technically backward compatible with Sapi 5.1 as it is basically just a newer version of the Sapi 5 library. Anna, though, was specifically compiled using Sapi 5.3 or later so won't run on XP. As for the AT&T voices those work fine on Windows 7. In fact, I just got your games setup using AT&T Crystal. So I can say for certain those work. the only problem is the Scansoft voices. As for the Scansoft voices those are not locked to Window-eyes. these are the Real Speak Solo voices that ship with Openbook 8, and are standard Sapi 5 voices not the Real Speak Direct voices with Jaws 10 and later.I don't have the Real Speak Direct voices, because they don't work with Window-eyes at all. However, setting something like tom as the default voice and seeing if your games work with it should be worth a try. I know the voices work with Win-Eyes and some other apps but crashes your games. So I'll do more testing and let you know.
