While registry cleaners are dangerous, I have had no issues with them. I use
CCleaner and I will say you do have to be careful on what you remove. My first
copy of Window eyes was 7.2, then I got 7.5 and so I just am very careful on my
system registry.

registry cleaners can do mor harm then good. i had one registry first aid
that always removed my hp printer drivers and programs. every time i ran it.
spyware doctor that kept removeing w e because it thought it was a virus even
when i excluded the files from scanning it still removed w e.
and has almost nothing to do with w e sluggishness. w e is getting bigger and
uses more c p u power to work.
remember a few years ago when the w e download was only 10mb? 7.5 is 91mb.
eight times bigger and probibly eight times bigger when it is uncompressed.

Try CCleaner to clean the registry.

Golly, that is a very good question. I tried a couple of registry
cleaners, but none were accessible with WE. Any recommendations for such a
product? I have mainly Skype, AVG ... Well, I just, in the middle of this
message went to my Startup to see what is in it. I emptied it some time ago,
so I hadn't checked in a while. There is my HP Scanner, and, to my shock,
Microsoft Office. It's bizarre that it's in the Startup. Hmm, that's a
puzzle. Maybe that's making my computer crazy? Never mind my computer; it's
making me crazy. *grin*

starts and when Window eyes runs?

Hmm, I get automatic updates, and I did go to MSCONFIG. I figure
it's got to be something with WE if this sluggishness didn't start until the
upgrade, but I don't know what the trouble is. The previous version before 7.2
was sluggish, and 7.2 fixed it. My WE used to stop speaking all the time.
Then, I got WE7.2, and things were better. Then, here we are. It's back to
sluggish again. I am not sure what the solution is.

The only thing I can suggest is to check for updates in Windows xp,
or turn off stuff you do not need running in windows xp by going in to MSConfig.

I bought the new WE around April 10-15, and when I checked for
updates a couple of days ago, it said there were none. I think I have the most
up-to-date version.

I am actually experiencing problems with sluggish responses
on the Internet, and in Microsoft Word. I use IE8 and Office 2000. I have
Windows XP. It's like the new WE needs a ton of memory. I am not sure. My
Insert Control S takes a few seconds to respond to read the status line in
Word. I don't know what's going on, but it is rather frustrating. I do use
Eloquence.

I had been saying on lists that I had been finding this
window eyes to be extremely sluggish and unresponsive. It takes seconds,
sometimes a minute before it would respond to a key press, making going through
documents, etc. almost unbearable. When somebody posted how to change
synthesizers, I decided I would try it. Especially since it has been fixed so
that if you make a mistake, it won't keep the change unless you tell it to.
First, I tried sappy, and the voice I got was horrible. Next, I decided to
change to eloquence, even though I don't like eloquence. I received the
surprise of my life. With eloquence chosen as the synthesizer, it is like
having a whole new computer and screenreader. It is the most responsive I have
ever seen a computer! So, I was wondering if the people who were going on
about how much they loved 7.5 were people who were using eloquence. Further, I
was also wondering if the rest of us who were complaining about the
sluggishness were using decktalk. Which brings me to the third part of my
question: why should decktalk be such a problem if it is something that is
already in window eyes? What is wrong with it? Is there something I have to do
to it, or is it something that GW micro has to do to correct this in subsequent
versions? Pam.
