Hello,
I have had Window-Eyes 8.4 go silent a few times for me on Windows XP. A
few minutes ago, I was writing a message in Outlook Express, and WE went
silent for no reason I could figure. When I tried to get back to the WE
Control Panel, Close WE, and Restart it, that didn't work. A few seconds
after I did CTRL-ALT-W, I got that "ding" that happens if WE is already
running. When I tried to use the Narrator in XP, it was worthless in
getting me back to WE speech. Apparently WE was actually still running, but
something broke down between WE and Eloquence. It is frustrating as new
things come out, they seem to be getting more unstable and flaky.

Subject: 8.4 too ready to fall silent
Hi all
I have to restart Window-Eyes quite a lot under Windows7 Home Premium.
I don't know if this is about Windows7 or 8.4, because I'm experiencing
them for the first time simultaneously.
Tab controls are a case in point. For example, if I arrow across the
tabs in BW Connect's options dialogue, the tabs don't speak properly,
and W-E will quite often stop talking altogether, requiring a restart.
It's doing that in Beckie as well, although, having just installed this,
there may be something else I should do to make this thing more
understandable.
Incidentally, someone posted a download link to a text file on Beckie
and screen readers, which no longer seems to work. Any ideas?
Reg
