I was just pressing the down-arrow on a web page. I can't remember the page because I was reviewing results from a google search and I had clicked on one of the links. Sam

What task were you doing in IE8 just prior to it going away? ----- Original Message ----- From: Sam bushman To: [email protected] Sent: Wednesday, June 10, 2009 6:15 PM Subject: WE 7.1 Beta 1 Hi guys, I have been running the beta with great results. However, I just had a hard crash. I lost speech in ie8 on winxp pro service pack 3. I had my sighted son exit all running apps ie8 oe etc. Then I still had no speech. My son then tried to click on the taskbar we icon and he couldn't get it to respond. I tried to press ctrl-backslash so I could exit properly and no luck. Finally even though the computer was responding to him ... I could not get speech squared away to start talking again. I tried to relaunch speech but, was told we was already running ... not in speech my son was reading the screen. Finally he just had to restart the computer. Speech came up with the reboot of the computer. I then tried to see if there was an error report to send to gw but, was told no error reports. So the upshot, we7.1 beta 1 is much more responsive and lots of things are better. It's more stable than any version I have had thus far. However, the hard lockups / loss of speech with no way to provide any info to gw or our selves is still a huge problem. So, hard lockup on beta one with no info of value to report. Why the crash ... I have no idea. What app at fault ... I have again no idea. When the computer was shutting down in the restart ... windows did say an app was not responding and shutting down. but, since windows didn't show what app ... again no valueable info. If gw had a way to send in a report of the computers state or something like that we may get some info but, as it is now ... this can happen over and over and I will not be able to provide any thing else of value. We are right back to some of my earlier posts on these issues. We need better ways to recover from the loss of speech ... we need better tools to report back to gw with info that may help them resolve issues. I am just greatful that I have sighted family memebers who are available to help from time to time. If I were alone or didn't have that help like others on the list ... I guess the only solution would have been to yank the plug ... plug it back in and pray speech and the computer reboots.
