I have a P4c800 E Deluxe and can't get the speech reporter to work.

Anyone got on of these and actually heard the speech reporter work?

I use the internal audio and it works under XP fine, just no speech
reporting.

I was testing different Micros and noticed the reporter was not working.

Of course I have set the options in bios correctly.

Funnily enough, I've never heard mine either.

Works - just barely. Some muffled voice said something about memory. I
used the utility to change the announcements to 2001's HAL9000 things
for fun.

Then I put in a SB Audigy so I don't hear them anymore.
 
First you have to enable voice reporting in BIOS.

Next you need a set of powered speakers on the Audio Out port of the mother
board.

To test on a running system just unplug your keyboard and then when you
Power Up you should hear a message that the keyboard is not connected.

Yup, tried all that, still nothing, but regular windows audio ok.

Works on my P48GX boards, just not my P4C800E boards.
 
My POST reporter works fine on my P4C900E-Dlx. I use it all the time. I
always hear "Computer now booting from operating system" at the end of POST.
The audio chip for the POST reporter is a seperate chip from the on board
audio SoundMAX chip. The speech controler is item #11 on page 1-7 of user
manual.
There is also a bundled Winbond Voice Editor program on the CD to change
voice prompts. Maybe someone played around with this program.
Good Luck,
Rich
