Hi Rick,
I assume you're talking about your old XP machines? Could be that
they're getting old and the security fixes and/or anti virus updates are
slowing them down.
I can say that sluggishness is common to my mchines, both of which
are three years old and running Windows 7, but this is most common
during boot up, for about five minutes or so until software gets
initialized. However, throughout my normal working day sluggishness is
common, especially surfing the web, as there is a lot of content being
sorted by the browser. Patience is key, but it is very common for
Window-Eyes to lock up and requiring a reboot.
hth,
Rod

Hi: I might be in a dialog or IE a example is the WindowEyes main Dialog.
The up, down, left and right arrow keys stop working. Sometimes tab
stops working. Sometimes it comes back after a few seconds sometimes
if I continue to hit keys it gets tied up for a long time. The mouse
keys on the numpad usually keep working ok but sometimes they will
lock up as well.
If I fire up JAWS the problem goes away in both jaws and windoweyes.
I also notice this off and on when entering text into the google
search box, sometimes I type a letter and have to wait for a few
seconds or longer for the letter to register. If I continue typeing
without hearing anything many of the letters are not added to the
string when speech comes back.
Sometimes this goes away after a few ReBoots and it does not happen
all the time but when it does happen I ave to leave the machine off
for a little while, at least that seemed to work the past couple of times.
Anyway, has anyone run up against something like this?
Is it a script problem or perhaps the elequence speech synth or any
other ideas?
