re-reading your message I missed the ActiveX error. xAP Speech refers
to the following :
Reference=*\G{00020430-0000-0000-C000-000000000046}#2.0#0#..\..\Windows\system32\STDOLE2.TLB#OLE
Automation
Reference=*\G{C866CA3A-32F7-11D2-9602-00C04F8EE628}#5.0#0#..\..\Windows\System32\Speech\Common\sapi.dll#Microsoft
Speech Object Library
Object={248DD890-BB45-11CF-9ABC-0080C7E7B78D}#1.0#0; MSWINSCK.OCX
Object={E7BC34A0-BA86-11CF-84B1-CBC2DA68BF6C}#1.0#0; ntsvc.ocx
It was built from the SAPI 5.1 sdk which was back in 2001!

xAP Speech is as Gregg suggested a SAPI application. In fact you can
think of it as little more that a xAP SAPI front end. It will talk and
output to sound cards as recognised by sapi itself. I originally ran
xAP Speech on win2k server but I've run it on win 2k3, XP and vista
too. At the start i used the free MS voices but have been using it with
the ATT natural voices for quite a while now.<br>
For testing i would ignore the service and run it as a regular
application. From there you can pick the default voice, sound card
which may not be correct. Sapi tends to like spdif outputs as its
defaults for some reason! Click Save and Test words and see what
happens. You should get xAP messages sent and the speech begins and
ends too. <br>
If that fails then it must be a Sapi thing if it succeeds then it
points to networking.<br>
<br>
Let me know what happens<br>
