Kurzweil 3000 Does Not Start

This article applies to:

• Kurzweil 3000 for Windows, version 6 and 7.
  

Symptoms

When the user tries to run the Kurzweil 3000, it appears that nothing happens, or an introductory dialog appears, but the application never starts up completely.

Cause

The Kurzweil 3000 might be trying to start the RealSpeak speech engine. That speech engine might be causing the Kurzweil 3000 to hang.

Solution

Download the latest patch for the Kurzweil 3000 version 7. It includes a fix for this problem. If you do not have version 7, call Kurzweil's technical support and ask for the latest version of TTS.OCX.
