Sapi4 detect hasn't worked for me since probably v9.0 32 or! 64 bit. I
think this has long since been broken. Anyway, no further comments. If I
say what I'm thinking, David would kill me, so I'm gonna leave my mouth
shut.

The only thing I can suggest is to contact Eric Damery directly. He may
be able to address your issue himself or refer you to someone else who
can. His email address is:

Subject: [JAWS-Users] Reaching someone else in FS tech support
Is there any way, when I send an issue to FS tech support, for me to
reach someone other than Mr. Tracey Jackson? Seems no matter when I send
a tech support request, I invariably reach him.
As I briefly mentioned in another recent post, when the JAWS 12 beta was
initially released, I submitted a bug I found in the new Text Analyzer
feature, using the recommended bug report form, and received a
confirmation screen after submitting the bug, but the issue was never
addressed and is still present in JAWS 12.0.522.
I couldn't figure out any other way to reach FS with the steps in written
form other than through tech support email. I've reproduced this bug on
multiple machines, all with different hardware, on the same release of
JAWS, so I don't feel it's something unique or specific to my
environment. I provided clear steps to allow FS to reproduce this bug in
both my original bug report and the tech support email.
I finally receive a reply back today, after several days, again from Mr.
Jackson, who now wants me to provide my JAWS serial and a phone number
and time I can be reached, because this issue needs to be forwarded to
the escalations team. Oh, so, the escalations team can't simply follow
my steps to reproduce the bug? We've got to waste my time on the phone,
where I can't easily record the call, so I've got no record of it, as
opposed to being able to archive email?
It's because I seem to end up with Mr. Jackson that I posted my question
here about whether it's possible to use the 32-bit Microsoft SAPI 4
speech engine under 64-bit JAWS on 64-bit Vista SP2, because I figured
I'd just receive his response without feedback from anyone else in tech
support, and I wanted to make sure this wasn't perhaps just something odd
under Vista which perhaps isn't a problem under Windows 7.
Unfortunately, no one on the list has responded to the original post,
which I did receive, so I must assume no one has any feedback to offer on
that issue. I'm inclined, however, after the numerous tests I've run on
this client's machine, to think that only 64-bit SAPI 4 speech engines
will show up under the Detect SAPI 4 synthesizers option of 64-bit JAWS.
Problem is, I've yet to find any free 64-bit SAPI 4 speech engines, and I
personally haven't found any commercial known 64-bit SAPI 4 speech
engines, so it would seem a moot point to even have the Detect SAPI 4
feature in 64-bit JAWS.
At any rate, is there any way for me to reach anyone else in tech support
besides Mr. Tracey Jackson, or is it just bad luck of the draw?
