Just a slight correction. You don't need a pair of eyes. Simply start
NVDA, on top of Window-Eyes. Then open the Window-Eyes control panel by
Ctrl-Backslash, go to Devices, expand it, and choose Synthesizer.
Tab over to the list of synths, and try change to Sapi, Microsoft, or
the ESpeak series. NVDA will speak all the time, letting you know what
you are doing. Once satisfied that you have selected a synth you think
would work, tab over to the Activate button of the screen, and hit
Enter. A message will notify you that the change is about to take place.
Choose the Keep alternative, and the new voice will be permanently
activated.
Once Window-Eyes is up running, you are good to close down NVDA. So let
NVDA be your eyes - in this case.

Is it possible that you chose a synthesizer that you didn't have
installed on your system at the time? I actually did that myself, or
should I say, when my wife installed it for me. I did give her wrong
direction in that case I'm afraid.
You probably should have chosen either the Microsoft Platform, or the
SAPI voices, and you would most likely have speech.
I would find a pair of sighted eyes, and have them Go to the Devices
options in the WE control panel, choose synthesizers, and from there,
choose one of the voices I mentioned above, and hopefully you should
be in business.
Really hope this helps,

Good morning Charlie,
Yes, I did do the quick install. I installed it using office 2010.
Now I have no speech at all. I hear the window eyes startup sound,
but no speech. I even tried to do a repair through the programs and
features, but only succeeded in uninstalling the program. Since its
still in my downloads folder, perhaps I'll try reinstalling it
again and see what happens. Thanks for trying to help me with
this problem.
