Re: [Audyssey] Question about Deluserlex on Jim's site?

Hello,
Yes, I believe that is what is happening. I tried previewing the voices 
and I get the message that this voice cannot be played. I have several 
of them, but none of them seem to work at all, even after the config 
files were deleted and SAPI-5 made new ones. Is there a way to remove 
SAPI-5 completely? I am doing it on a Windows X netbook 32-bit system. I 
can hardly play any self-voicing games without the SAPI-5 active on it.

2011-08-22 Thread Jim Kitchen

Hi Alfredo,

Below are all of the sapi5 fixes that I know of.  Of course you have already 
tried the first fix the deluserlex file.

The first thing that I would try would be the DelUserLex.exe file that you can 
find on my free windows sapi5 text to speech games page, as well as on the GW 
Micro and Freedom Scientific sites.  It is a strange file in that it doesn't 
say or seem to do anything, but it did fix my sapi5 voices.

Here is another fix that I was told about.
Go to c:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Speech
Then, press enter on Sapisvr.exe. It won't say anything, but it should 
correct the control panel entries for Sapi.


Another thing that you can do is to use the Windows XP restore feature to 
restore your computer back to a date when the voices were working.

And then there is to use your Windows XP cd to repair the entire sapi5 text to 
speech engine.

you can download (SpeechSDK51MSM.exe).
which contains all of the Microsoft Sapi voices available for Windows XP from

Hi Alfredo,

Sounds like your Sapi control panel entries are messed up. On Windows
XP there is a program you can run to repair the control panel entries,
but  I've for gotten it since I am running Windows 7, and the repair
tool no longer ships with Sapi 5.4. I'm pretty sure Jim Kitchen knows
since he uses Sapi in most of his games.

Hello,
My netbook is in need of SAPI-5i repair. I was wondering if the file on 
Jim's site might do the trick. I tried clicking on the program but it 
acted like it opened, then closed. Is this supposed to happen?

If anyone has an answer, can you send them my way?

Hi,

That is quite normal. The program runs, and then exits without any 
notification.

Hi,

That is all the program does. It just runs silently in the background.
There are no dialogs, message boxes, or anything of that kind.

Cheers!

Re: [Audyssey] Question about Deluserlex on Jim's site?

2011-08-21 Thread Thomas Ward
Hi Alfredo,

Depends on what is wrong with the voices. The delusrlex.exe program
basically just deletes your voice configurations allowing Sapi to
create new ones the next time Sapi starts. In many cases a
misconfiguration is all that is wrong with the voices and deleting and
resetting the default configurations gets things back to normal. Other
times though the problem is more serious. It would help to have a
detailed description of your problem and perhaps we can help you sort
it out. Worst case you will have to uninstall Sapi and install Sapi
5.x from scratch.

 Does it fix a totally broken SAPI-5 engine? My netbook lacks many of its
 voices. I was hoping to use it to repair all of them. So, is it possible
 to test the driver by using the TS settings?
