Hello,
What is likely happening is that you have a third-party copy of
Eloquence installed, most likely from an older version of Window-Eyes or
Kurzweil 1000. When Voice Rotor loads, it scans all of the available
synthesizers so that you don't have to wait for it to do so each time
you configure your preferences. A consequence here is that it will run
through each voice, including both versions of Eloquence. Two instances
of Eloquence can't be loaded at once in Window-Eyes due to a limitation
of the synthesizer. Therefore, the first version the script sees ends up
being the only one you can use. In this case, it's the third party
version that is getting enabled. Uninstalling the external copy of
Eloquence will solve your problem, and it should also make your system
considerably more stable.
Regards,
Steve

Good morning. I remember messages about the Eloquence voices not
being found after patch installation. I ran into this earlier this
morning on my old XP box. The voice rotor script was installed on
this machine with Eloquence Reed in the list. Voice rotor didn't find
the voice. I checked the synth list in WE and there were no voices
listed under Eloquence. I stopped the voice rotor script and like
magic the list of Eloquence voices returned to WE's synthesizer list.
I restarted the script and again the problem occurred. I tried to
remove Reed from its list and put it bak in. It's a no go on this
box. The Voice rotor script is the newest version. I may try to
remove it and reinstall it from scratch but it seems that this script
just does not like something with this particular machine. In
summary, you have the Eloquence voices when you install the patch. If
you don't see them stop or remove Voice rotor and you'll see them.
Good luck.
