It can happen for a couple of reasons. 1. Sound quits. If you have an
external synthesizer, there is a way to set up window-eyes to allow you
to toggle to it. The problem with windows just losing sound has been
ongoing since 7 came out. To know if this is your trouble, turn on
toggle keys in accessibility, if it seems to quit, hit a capslock or
numlock, if you hear sound you know it is window-eyes.
2. Sometimes window-eyes just dies and won't come back. No need to do
a hard shutdown at this point, either hit windows-r and type narrator,
or configure a shutdown shortcut with a hotkey to activate it. Also,
configure your power button to shutdown when pressed, then you should be
able to simply tap it to shutdown. If that doesn't work, you may well
have a windows problem, unrelated to window-eyes.

Anyone ever had their system just quit speaking?
It forces you to do a hard shut down. I've had this happen twice now, the
system restore screen comes up and wants to restore your system. It's
virtually useless at that point cause there is no speech. Anyone know of a
way to get around this?
