sounds like your c p u has too much to do. grin
have you tried another synth like decaccess32 or microsoft speech?
if it works right then you know it is eloquence.
you may need a updated sound card driver.
also what is hap
pening is normal. the c p u will stop speech while it accesses your hard
drive. it will process sound inbetween read and wright times
thats why it studders. its waiting for the drive to finish a read cycle.
it happens to me too acationly with my 2.4 ghz computer too, but not as bad
as yours does.
for what ever the reason something is boging down the c p u. probibly mcafee
or norton. both slow down your computer as much as 20 percent.

Subject: new eloquence, when the PC gets busy
Don't know, if it is only with me, Eloquence plays tricks. At the moment, I
am working on a laptop, from 2004. It is a 2.8ghz, with xp pro, and 768RAM.
This problem didn't happen with the SAPI voices - Eloquence or any of my
other SAPI voices.
What happens is, that when I operate too much on the PC simutaneously - i.e
I have opened Outlook Express, then choosen to read a message, and find a
link in that message, which I click on - the Eloquence sounds like he has
swallowed a machine gun; stuttering like crazy, whilest the Internet
Explorer opens, and loads the linked page. If now, the Internet - out of
some reason - doesn't work at optimum speed, Eloquence will go on for quite
a while, stuttering the text it was reading. Sometimes it even decides to go
for 'coffee', leaving me on my own, infront of the PC; helpless... :) the
stuttering also shows up, when I am reading some text in let's say Notepad,
and Outlook Express sneaks onto the Internet - in the background - so as to
check for new messages. That's just two examples, where eloquence seems to
have certain vocal problems. Don't know, if my Eloquence is sick; or if any
of you have noticed similar complications.
Thanks for all good suggestions!
