Hello everyone, Last August I posted and reported having problems with Eloquence sluggishness when using JAWS 8.0 under Windows Vista. I reported that upgrading my audio drivers to the latest version of the Realtech High Definition driver fixed the problem. Well, that wasn't what actually happened. I went to do the same thing yesterday when I noticed RealSpeak Solo Direct (I sure wish someone from FreedomScientific would designate it's shorthand name "RSD," it's so much less to type) and followed the uninstaller directions. The directions told me that when my computer restarted, the driver would be removed, and to run setup again. Great. So no speech, I thought. I restarted my computer, realizing that I would probably have to wait until my mother returned home before I could complete the process. To my surprise, however, JAWS still came up and I had speech! It turned out that when I uninstalled the Realtech driver, a Microsoft driver automaticly became the default. Last year I didn't pick up on that, probably because I had sighted assistance for the installation because I thought I needed it. But when speech came up last year, I never actually went ahead and installed the new Realtech driver; I just used the Microsoft driver. I am going to install the new Realtech driver and will let you know what happens, although I think I'm going to have the same problem I did earlier.
