[gui-talk] Setting JAWS voices

[Wayne Merritt]

Greetings. This is going to sound like a basic question, but hear me
out on this. I've tried multiple times to set the voices on my new
Asus EEE PC 1000HE netbook by going to the global and individual
voices dialogs from the JAWS window Options menu, but I can't get them
to stick when I save/close the dialog with OK. I've heard that it
might take several reboots of the netbook for JAWS to fully settle
itself and work properly. I'm hoping this is the case since I'm not
sure of what else to do. Has anyone else had this issue come up, and
how did you fix it? Any help would be much appreciated. I'm using JAWS
10 on the netbook. The voices also change when I go to different
windows and different programs, and they appear to change at random
times. There doesn't seem to be a pattern to when it gets faster and
then goes back to the 15 percent default speed. I've tried setting
both the default and application specific voices with no resolution.
If I can get this nailed down, then that will make my over all netbook
experience more enjoyable.

Many thanks,
Wayne
