[DECtalk] Access 32 On Windows 7

Hmm. Sounds like FS is being more jerky than before. I tried with JAWS
11 back in the day, and it worked just fine considering the
circumstances. I mean, nobody should have to uninstall a synth to get
another one working. I wish I could be more help, but I've not used
JAWS in forever (except an old Windows 2000 machine that has JAWS 8).
I guess the only thing to do is bug FS to death about it until they
actually do something. Oh, and that's not an easy task given my past
experiences with a PAC Mate. Ever been told how to propperly write
Braille by an FS official? Pretty over the line.
