    Hi, I have a condensed version of vista. Everything is great except I think there is something wrong with the speech engine. The audio output is fine and all, it plays music and sounds. But when I try to play read-out-loud function in Adobe Acrobat, or text-to-speech function in a dictionary program, errors come up

    "invalid class string: progID: "SAPI.SpVoice"

    I looked up the net, and try to get access via control panel. In vista I should be able to go into the folder "ease of access center" from "ease of access" folder, but for my vista, I have nothing in my "ease of access" folder.

    Any idea will be appreciated.
