Very close. If i were to go to the desktop, Window eyes starts reading everything on the desktop. Even hitting the control key doesn't shut the speech up. I am using Windows xp home on a Laptop. If I hit s for something as I said, that is fine. But it is slow to respond. I have tried this with three synthesizers. \ Duyahn Walker

I press windows-m to minimize everything, and I end up on my desktop. If I press S as you indicated, I move to the first icon which begins with S and it is said. If I press it again, I move to the second icon which begins with S, and so on. Is this what you're doing, but you're getting something completely different?

When I use Window eyes and try to type a certain key on the desktop, Window eyes is very sluggish in responding. For instance, if I type the letter S, for Skype Talking, I have to hear everything else that starts with that letter. That part is fine but, the fact that I can not interupt the speech is annoying. Even hitting the control key to silence the speech doesn't work either. I have had to unload Window eyes and try other screen readers to see if I am getting the same issues and I am not. I don't know if something in my settings is off or has gone crazy or what. Then I have noticed that Read to end is not working correctly as it should. If i open Notepad and start reading a document, Window eyes will stop half down the page and I have to issue the command again. I again, am not sure why this is going on. If anyone can help me off list so I don't bomb this wonderful list, let me know and I will give you contact information to contact me at. Oh, and one more thing. I am using Windows xp home on a Dell Lattitude 520. Duyahn Walker If you reply to this message it will be delivered to the original sender only.
