Re: dectalk express in dos boxes with jfw and jfd

[Damon Fibraio, Krajczar Technology Center]

I don't use JFD, but here is something you could investigate. Does JFD 
require the DOS drivers for the dectalk? if so, you are going to need to 
make a change to JFW. I believe that the cectalk express installed option 
on JFW loads its own driver and doesn't require the dos drivers to be 
loaded from autoexec.bat. However, if you are running the JFD program, 
chances are that you may need the dos dectalk drivers, unless I am wrong. 
If that is the case, you cannot use the dctalk express option, since the 
jfw driver and the dectalk driver will conflict. You will need to either 
add lines to jfw.ini changing the synth or reinstall jfw and pick the 
dectalk pc/express option during teh install, or just change to a software 
synth as the default synth in jfw. If I am wrong in JFD's configuration, I 
fervently appologize.
