In 20 years this is the first time I've had this happen to me using Dragon. And it is only happening on one laptop and not the other backup one.
Everything I try to do the text-to-speech program is reading it back to me and it's driving me nuts! The only way I found get rid of it is to turn the volume down to zero, which is a problem when I am using YouTube or Skype. I tried to unload text-to-speech five times and it will not unload although I'm following the directions explicitly. So now I'm calling in you guys for advice, you are the big guns! If anyone window the answer to this, paralyzed people would. Oh BTW, I had to delete Dragon 13 on my fancy new computer I bought just to be powerful enough to run it properly, and reload Dragon 12.5. I had my new computer five months and at least once a month, Dragon would crash and could not be revived until I had my laptop taken to a computer shop, where they went take a week to fix it and it cost me a couple hundred dollars each time. Finally I found other people on the Internet that were having the same problems with 13, and they all had to revert back to a previous program also. They're all lamenting that Nuance was the only game on the block and had a monopoly, and how they would all like to get away from Dragon if there was only something else available. Obviously Nuance did not put the effort forward to test the program thoroughly before releasing it, and they certainly are not going to admit to their negligence because it would cost them money to replace the programs. It is so wonderful to have you guys to bounce things off of. It is great not to be isolated without access to information from warm bodies.
