Thanks for the regedit tips jackie_w! I have another problem with my voice selectrion now, though.

When I opened Calibre viewer yesterday, and opened the selection dialog for Read Aloud, it offered several "ScanSoft" voices. I selected one, but then found that it was not actually available, despite Calibre viewer ofering it as an option. Now, I can't access the selection dialog to change it to one of the voices made available by following the procedure above. I get this error message:

"OSError: C:\r\src\src\calibre\utils\windows\winsapi.cpp:163 :Failed to find voice with id:[-2147200966] IDispatch error #20026: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Speech\Voice s\Tokens\ScanSoftTom_Dri20_22kHz"

It's a perfectly understandable error message, my problem is that it pops up when I click on the gear icon to try to change the selected voice to one that is available. I've tried a Repair of my Calibre install, but that didn't fix it. Any ideas on how I should proceed?
