BrightSpeech voices on Windows Server 2003?

[pkoslow]

Does any one have these voices running on 2003 Server?

I was able to try them out on an XP workstation, but when installing the trial on my HS Server they don't work. I'm not able to run the license manager app to setup the 30 day trial. When I click on it, it never launches... just times out after a few minutes without bringing up any screens or errors?

I don't see 2003 server mentioned in their system requirments on the we site, so possibly it's not supported. I'm currently running the AT&T voices that originally did not support Win2K and with some help from board memebers was able to get them to install after modifying the .msi file... wondering if something similar can be done with the BrightSpeech voices?

Cheers,
Paul

It's probably because BrightSpeechs' web site is down.

Rupp,

I installing the voices a couple weeks ago when the thread first started... I was able to license the trial version on an XP desktop within an hour of trying on the server. Too me it looks like the app is checking the OS and refusing to launch?

Yes, I was running the voices on 2003 Server, no issues.

Thanks Bill!


I took Rupps advice and emailed BabelTech's sales & support a couple nights ago, but haven't received a response yet.

Doesn't sound like the voices will be easily available/affordable. If this changes, I'll try to re-install.
