Hi all,

I feel that it is time I come out here and ask if anyone has been in the =
same situation with having an open book problem as I am having. =20

I use windows xp, window eyes 6.1, and open book.  Up until a couple of =
days ago I had open book 5 and I was doing fine with it.  Then I =
purchased the latest version of open book which is 8.  I uninstalled the =
5 and then installed the 8.  Well, from that point on open book does not =
open or work at all.  It just gives error messages wanting to send error =
reports.  I am in contact with Freedom Scientific and have tried to =
repair open book.  Plus I have uninstalled it and reinstalled it a =
couple times, but still the same result.  The bottom line is that there =
is still some sort of conflict, but Freedom Scientific hasn't figured =
out what it is yet.  I was wondering why all of a sudden this is =
happening and they said that in version 8 the speech drivers are =
different or something. =20

I was just wondering if anyone on here has been in the same situation =
before when they upgraded with open book and if so what you did about =
the conflict.  I would appreciate hearing anyone's experiences.  I don't =
know if it will come down to the fact that there is a solution to this =
or not.  I guess I may have to see if I can go back to an earlier =
version that will work and just live with that or spend an exorbitant =
amount of money on something to scan like Kurzweil or whatever.  Thanks =
so much.=20

Lisa
