I can't make any guarantee or accept any liability, but I uninstalled
catalyst and it only made things much better. My understanding is that
it's primarily a bunch of bells and whistles for gamers.

Hello,
I write to find out if anyone else has this experience; and, if so, what
did you do to change matters for the better?
When I'm on the desktop, start any program or explore folders etc., when
finished, I am returned to the desktop with the following spoken message:
"AMD CCC Capturing Window"
If I use the ctrl-shift-t to read the title, I hear the same thing and
even sometimes, not always, I hear "normal" which tells me the window is
not maximized, but normal. There is nothing voicable in that window.
When I use alt-F4, the window is dismissed and I hear "desktop" and can
navigate normally.
Searching the web, I learned that AMD and its ATI video graphics card
(version/name unknown) is at the bottom of this. It has something to do
with its Catalyst control center and seems a rather fundamental piece of
software I'm reluctant to uninstall -- even to reinstall it. After all,
it came with my brand new Del XPS8300 with Windows 7, Office2010, and
the newly upgraded WE7.5.2.
Dismissing the"capturing window" seems to have no ill-effects, but after
a while the thing becomes a real nuisance. While that window is up, I
cannot navigate the desktop. In fact, on startup, landing on the
desktop, WE says "desktop" and no more. No navigation allowed. Pressing
alt-F4 and we're back to go.
This is not technically a GWMicro WE issue, but it is close enough to
affect the behavior of WE that I am wondering if this sort of thing is
contributing to instability of the screen reader or Windows7 in some way.
Thanks for any help...
David
