or way the words are accented are quite noticeable.
Did you try Microsoft's site for the latest TTS 5.0
voices?

You might as well try both. At this point it can't hurt!
Earlier you mentioned that you tried the Sapi setup.
Try it one more time:
C:Program FilesHaptekplayerdataHapTTS
Once there, find the file: HapSAPISetup.exe and double click it.
Select voice > Test voice > Click on Make this voice my default
voice.
Again,
best of luck!
Yes, Art, I downloaded just about everything from this site and redid SAPI. It is wierd that I can set the speach in the XP speech panel, but not in Hal. And, not all the voices are availible and the voices sound different in Hal.
Finally, the echo has invaded my system again. It now shows up in all the reader voices. [8]
