I read the readme_1st file before downloading thezipspeak.zip file. After extracting zipspeak.zip to D: and then rebooted to the command prompt only. I switched to D: and ran the Linux.batfile. My DECTalk Express talked alot of information and an error then just sat. How can I save all this information and the error to a text file?
