Just after writing my note I spotted that the new company standard PC image has MS power Toys installed on it. I recall that these do not co-exist well with Window-Eyes.
Once I uninstalled them all seems now to be better. Sorry to trouble the list. Regards, John.

It is an HP 7700 PC with 1GB RAM running Windows XP SP2. I have installed WE 6.1 on it as I want to get the PC all configured as I like it on a production level screen reader. The issue I have is that when using <alt><tab> to get to different, running, applications then there is no speech. A sighted colleague has looked at my screen for me and tells me that the list of apps does come up, but it is a very pretty screen, with pictures for the application being run etc. As this is somewhat non-standard I guess this is why it is not spoken. I have looked all over the place to see how to switch this screen effect off, but with no luck. Can anyone help please? Thanks. Regards, John.
