Hi Tony,

That's certainly a lead! I just dl'd that stuff. Too bad that the text file 
doesn't say what the files are, just says to go to their web page for more 
info, even though there is no DECTalk info there. I guess I'll convince 
myself to burn these onto my last CD and give them a try. The ISA card is 
often referred to as DECTalk PC1, the PCI version being PC2. So it appears 
that there is one version to try here. One more than I had yesterday! Thank 
you.

I am sure that these are official, but not all of the official drivers are 
there. I did have NT drivers a couple of years ago, and they were release 
drivers, not beta or third party. Actually, I was using them in Windows 2000 
(aka NT 5.0) with no problems at all. I'll give these a try soon. Here's to 
keeping great old tools from lapsing into obscurity!
