Gail and all, why now is a good question. I have been running the beta on a machine with 2 gigs of ram and on an older machine with 512 megs. The problmes that I am experiencing with the beta are virtually identical from machine to machine.

While more ram will speed certain tasks, it has been my experience that the fact of one's computer running half a gig instead of a gig or more of ram cannot be blamed for speech interuptions. Significant here is that GW staff members who participate on this list have not pointed to insuficient memory as a possible issue.

Since deactivating the progress indicator script I have not experienced a speech interuption but the fact that some still are, especially a couple who I know to be experienced screen reader users, is of real concern.

It hasn't given me problems until this beta and they're saying that this beta doesn't take that much RAM, so why now?

 I Gail,
Sounds like you need a RAM update to me. Half a gig is going to give you problems
 with XP I reckon. 1GB would be the minimum I would recommend.
 All the best

 Subject: Reporting on the beta
I've turned off scripting and for the most part the beta works better, but I still get loss of speech for no reason I can ascertain and it still happens sporadically, several occurrences right in a row and then it runs fine for a day. I can give no definite reason but it has always happened with Eloquence and it usually happens when I go to a website, not the same one. When I used Dectalk Access 32 for WindowEyes for testing purposes, it didn't happen, but I have to slow that down to understand it and even then it's more difficult for me to understand so I'd rather not go back
 to that. I'm using Windows XP with half a gig of RAM.
