Just to chime in here regarding instability with we I recently updated
all my drivers including realtek HD and since then I have had no issues
whatever with we 7.5 on my win7 home prem 32 bit.
Before the updates we would go silent a bit so I recommend anyone who
does not keep their drivers current may have issues.

I've had those problems as well particularly with netflicks.
Sometimes I've had to restart to get window-eyes to speak.
In that case it's Windo-eyes 7.2 with windows 7 64 bit.

Hi,
I am not using winamp but, I have had the same problem on a couple of
occasions. A few time I left ie running for a while when I was away
from the computer. When I came back WE wasn't talking. Also, on
netflix when watching a movie, show, etc when it was over and I tried
to go back to the movie listing WE wasn't talking. I don't have any
add ons or plug-ins.

Subject: Apps cause instability?
This might be just a speculation on my part, but is it possible
that some of these fansy apps we use as add-ons cause Window Eyes itself
to become unstable? The selling point always has been "rock solid
performance", however I'll point out a couple situations where it hasn't
been.
The first of course is my experiences with the web, I won't get in
to that here. The second was a couple times yesterday, I'd had some
audio playing with my favorite player (Winamp Pro), and in that
situation, the screen saver came on while it was playing. When I tried
to take the system off the screen saver and use the computer, I had no
speech. On an inspiration I removed the app for Winamp which I'd
installed. While being extremely well done and making Winamp very nice
to use, for the main features of Winamp it isn't strictly necessary, and
I haven't had a problem since, though it hasn't been that long so it
probably isn't fair to assume that the Winamp app was the problem.
Complicated apps I could see potentially might cause sluggishness in
Window Eyes especially if those apps are forcing it to try to pull
something off the screen Etc. Would a third party app like say Winamps
app cause problems with browsing the web? Am I on the right track here?
