Hi Angus, you don't need to uncompress isoes to burn them to cd though this is most likely how you'll want to do the install, I.E., you'll want to do a cd based install so burn the cds before beginning with your tool of choice, it doesn't matter if your tool of choice for burning the disks is Nero, EZ CD Creator, or another tool. And, for what it's worth I've had good experience with Bill's speakupup modified rh media detecting my synth once I specify it on the command line to begin an install using in my case text speakup_synth=acntsa for my accent sa. Of course the synth key word you'll need for your synth will be different but everything up to text speakup_synth= will be the same as what I'd use. Hth and good luck.

I have downloaded the RedHat ISO files to my HD from the Speakup FTP site. Now should I burn the ISO files to CDRW using Nero 5.50.90? Should I uncompress the ISO files some how before I burn them? Currently I am using Windows 98 SE with 320MB of RAM. Is there a CDRW disk type I should use? > > When I put the CD into the drive, will Speakup automatically recognize and use my DECTalk Express on COM1? > > Angus MacKinnon > Adaptive Computer Educator, ACE > Web page: http://members.shaw.ca/dabneyadfm > MAILTO:flodabay at hotmail.com > Choroideremia Research Foundation Inc. > http://www.choroideremia.org > > > _______________________________________________ > Speakup mailing list > Speakup at braille.uwo.ca > http://speech.braille.uwo.ca/mailman/listinfo/speakup >
