This can be difficult but it is usually easy to work through. In these situations starting another screen reader gives you speech so you can find the offending program. You don't have to spend another dime either. You can put the demo of JFW on your system. You can put a copy of the free NVDA screen reader on your system. You could even use narrator to help you. This doesn't happen to me very often but when it does I start NVDA. Once I end Explorer or Outlook Express or some other non-responsive program WE comes back alive. I use NVDA's quit hotkey to go back to one speech source and I'm back on my way without rebooting or randumly shutting down programs or killing and restarting WE. In the past year I believe I've had to push the power button to restart one time. It reallyh is easy to have speech to help us out of situations where it seems that WE is locked up. It's often some other program which may very well be from MicroSoft. ----- Original Message ----- From: "net bat" <[email protected]> To: "GW INFO" <[email protected]> Sent: Wednesday, September 09, 2009 10:45 AM Subject: Re: window eyes 7.1 locking up > there are times when speech is lost because a program has stopped working. > you have to try to quit the program that microsoft says has stopped > working then w e will start talking again. very hard to do without any > speech. > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Norman Coffman" <[email protected]> > To: "gwinfo" <[email protected]> > Sent: Wednesday, September 09, 2009 8:29 AM > Subject: Re: window eyes 7.1 locking up > > >>I have had this problem with Vista and it occurs sometimes with zoomtext >>as well as window eyes.
