Eric and Michael, I would suggest that Chris visit this site here is where you can get all the drivers you need for Sony:
http://www.esupport.sony.com and then just put in your model number and it will guide you to the proper page. Once at that page click on drivers and you probably want to then click on either Updated Drivers or Sony may have a link for Windows Vista if that is what Chris is using.

You can try Narrator on the machine and I suspect you will see the same sluggish audio response when typing which verifies this issue. Most manufacters did not have proper audio drivers done for Vista until well after Vista released so we have seen alot of this. Even with the updated drivers, it still will not feel as responsive as XP. Installing JAWS 9 will then feel very responsive. Even under XP, you'll find JAWS 9 more responsive.

What I had to do was upgrade my audio drivers to the latest version; after that, everything was great. Also, in the latest beta version of JAWS, Freedom Scientific has improved the performance of Eloquence even more.
