Hi Jim, No, I just used the standard yes/no prompt until Crystal came up and asked me if I wanted to use that voice. It crashes only when it tries to use Scansoft Tom, Daniel, Karen, or some of the other Real Speak Solo voices that comes with Openbook 8 or Jaws 9. As I said those voices were true Sapi voices and should work, but aren't working for some reason. However, back when I was still using Vista I didn't have this issue. I'm suspecting the trouble isn't with your games but the Real Speak Solo voices themselves. They work alright with Window-Eyes and Text Aloud but not some of the games. I just tried them with Time of Conflict and got the same problem. I'm not sure if it is my install or some weird compatibility issue with those voices and Sapi 5.4. However, I thought you might like to know what voices I have tried and know work for certain with Windows 7 and your games.
AT&T Crystal AT&T Mike AT&T Lorn Cepstral Callie Microsoft Anna These are currently the voices I have installed and I have tested with your games. I would assume since Cepstral Callie for Windows works that any of the Cepstral voices that also use the Swift 5.0 engine from Cepstral would equally work well with your games. Same goes for the AT&T voices that all use the same engine as Crystal and Mike. If Crystal and Mike work it goes without saying all the other voices should work too as they all use the same engine. I recently have purchased a couple of the Cereproc voices, but haven't tested them with your games yet. However, according to Cereproc they are suppose to be Windows 7 compatible so I would assume they are. If you need me to I have Cereproc Sarah and William to try with your games.
