Hi Chris: Guess I dont have a battery on my desktop machine. I now have done many things attempting to stabalize WindowEyes. I have downloaded Microsoft software, outdated versions required for WindowEyes, and some would download, some wouldnt. I have mucked with plug in options which actually indicate a problem but was told to ignore the man behind the curtain. I wait until WindowEyes reads a line or 2, at least, whenever I open a new application or switch between applications, helps indeed. I have mucked with the mouse settings to reduce, not eliminate, phantom speech by about 90 percent - did not seem to help too much with automatic dynamics that may, or not, be related to WindowEyes using the mouse behind the scenes. I just turned off sleep mode. I still get speech drop outs and the occasional lockup most often in Internet Explorer likely due to how WE responds to various dynamics of web pages. I get them perhaps a couple to few times a day which is still unacceptible but better. Along this path of modification I have spent many, many hours both researching the problems and trying to find and implement the above solutions with allot of help from the community and a little from AI Squared. Next up if possible is to try and define what is causing the speech drop outs and lockups in Internet Explorer, Outlook and other programs. It could be anything from a bad script to something being put into memory that gets overwritten to thread conflicts. This may be a result of how the low level message processing or other heavy technicals are used or how windoweyes handles working in a multi-processor and multi-threading environment under the latest virtual processor machines since WindowEyes does not use the .net platform to handle such things as memory allocation, controls and all that jazz as far as I know. Anyway, thanks for the heads up but it was detailed, I think, in one of the messages I sent to the list or to Rod so I wasnt expecting the 4 combo boxes on my desktop machine but good heads up for the laptop guys and gals.

RE: Sleep Mode Situation If you have a battery, IE a laptop you'll have two for each. A set of combo boxes for when the computer is plugged in and when it is on battery.

RE: Sleep Mode Situation Hi Rick, I'm running Windows 10, and I also have two combo boxes, the first being how many minutes before the display is turned off, set to ten minutes by default, and can be left alone. The second combo box is the number of minutes before the computer goes to sleep and that was set to thirty minutes as the default and should be changed to Never. By the way, I found the setting by typing power in the search box on the Start menu, and arrowing down to Power Options. Good luck, Rod -----Original Message----- From: Talk [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Rick Thomas via Talk Sent: October 1, 2015 8:20 AM To: 'Rick Thomas' <[email protected]>; 'Window-Eyes Discussion List' <[email protected]> Subject: Final Message? RE: Sleep Mode Situation OK Rod: I set both the combo box settings to never so never hibernate and never sleep I guess. Not what I really want in case I want the machine to power save if I end up away from it for a lengthly period but if it allows me to not lose speech I guess worth the trade-off. If it does not work I will post up a follow up message but for now, per your idea, I have turned sleep and hibernate off I think. That is unless, like one article said, these settings might not apply if the hybrid sleep setting is turned on but I cant find that setting anyplace on my machine so far.
