Hi.
Can't help you with the lockups, but I can speed up your recovery time.
Don't do a hard reset. Instead log out. Even if you're locked up with
speech this should work, does for me.
Press the Windows key.\
Press right arrow three times.
Press L for log out, then press enter.
Windows will return to the log in screen and almost always WE will be
talking again, assuming you have WE set to speak at login
Type in your password and return to Windows
It ttakes only about 30 seconds as opposed to the minutes a hard restart
takes.
Hope this helps.

Subject: Frustrated with multiple lockups
Hey guys,
I am almost at the end of my rope with window-eyes and windows in
general.
I have no idea what to do here, but I need a solution, and fast.
These unexplainable lockups are unacceptable, and there has to be a
solution.
I'm going to go down my laundry list of issues.
First of all, I'll be typing, and all of a sudden, speech will just
stop.
Like I'll be in the middle of an email message in outlook 2003, the ding
dong sound will play like I have a new message, and I have no
speech. So I
am forced to physically power down the machine, unacceptable.
Another issue, I'll load a web page, it could be any page, and I'll
find a
link that I want, and by pressing enter on that link, it completely
locks
the machine.
Another issue I'm having, how can I completely kill window-eyes from
running. The issue I have I hit control insert f4 when ihave an
issue then
press enter.
I'll wait a few seconds then hit my window-eyes start key, only to be
met
with ding dong, ya know the hi to low ding sounw that there is an error.
The issue is, window-eyes is already running. Well, how can it be
running
when I have no speech, and I issued the command to shut it down.
Guys, I'm at the end of my rope with this. I work in a public safety
environment, and 20 minutes of down time is just no acceptable. It
not only
happens here but on my home machine running windows 7 64 bit.
Can anyone shed some light? Is there any sort of error log that windows
creates?
Thanks,
Jed
