Hi, Yes I know that ViaVoice can speak french but unfortunatly it doesn't work with all sound chips. for example it doesn't work on my laptop which has a VIA onboard sound chip. It says approximatly two or three words and then crashes. then in a such case a hard synthetizer would be a better choice. -- Nath *********** REPLY SEPARATOR *********** On 25/10/02 at 17:05 Mario Lang wrote: >"Nath" <nath31@ifrance.com> writes: > >> OK, thanks a lot Mario.
