Brenda, I've been using a Dell laptop for several years, and think it's utterly ridiculous for someone to suggest a certain brand of pc is the cause. who said that to you? Of course tech support is going to get more calls involving one of the best selling brands in the country, that's the way statistics work. btw, I have disabled all the added on Dell software, and it has made no difference. this is easily done using the MSConfig utility if you think anything from Dell is to blame, without a reinstall to see if that's the case.

I have the same locking up problems, especially involving IE. Sometimes W-E freezes and sometimes IE does. It even happened on my xp machine once. More often, with my Vista-64 laptop W-E locks up if I am going too fast when using IE. Last night, I had to shutdown the machine. It was fine after that. (I use dectalk. One thing I don't see mentioned, is anyone using a Dell machine. I was told that Dell machines cause delays and Tech Support may even suggest re-installing windows without Dell programs. I would hate to have to do this. Seems like perhaps this is not just a Dell issue. I'm not glad these issues are happening, but it is good to know it is not just me or my PCs.

I thought it was just that they really didn't do a good job testing with vista 64, but window-eyes 7.1 really should not have been released so quickly. It's definitely not as stable as 7.01.

Yes, I can confirm that. Under XP Pro. Thought it might be something with my pc, but seems like your machine must have the same trouble, then. ----- Original Message ----- From: Bill Holton <mailto:[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Sunday, July 12, 2009 8:31 PM Subject: 7.1 stability problems Hi. Is anyone else having trouble with 7.1 when you start moving fast around the computer? I have WE 7.1 stop talking on both my XP and Vista machines, both using eloquence, if I start keying around too fast with either Windows keys or WE hotkeys. The rest of the sounds on the PC work fine, and it's not locking up, but it takes speech about ten seconds to start again. Other times it doesn't start again, and the only way to get WE back is to do a hard reset. On my Vista machine, I also have a problem I have had ever since I started using Vista, only now it happens more frequently. Speech will die, the other sounds are working fine, and the only way to get WE back is to turn the machine off or do a start menu restart. Then, just before Windows shuts down, the speech comes back fine, for about two seconds, then the machine is restarted. This is very frustrating. Anyone else having this situation? Thanks.
