Two, maybe three (I forget), of those voices came bundled with the SAPI SDK
which is available here:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=5e86ec97-40a7-453f-b0ee-6583171b4530&displaylang=en
I have no idea if the language pack will install itself on Vista.
Regards,
Will

The Microsoft ones are not brilliant. Get yourself AT & T or the
Cepstral ones.

Will is correct that that the Speech API 5.1 SDK included two TTS engines;
Mary and Mike. However, those are only supported on SAPI 5.1, which is
specific to Windows XP and Windows Server 2003. They will not work on
Windows Vista, which includes SAPI 5.3.
Additionally, the TTS engine that shipped with Windows XP, Microsoft Sam is
not available for Windows Vista.

So when will other voices become available for Microsoft Vista
Text-To-Speech? I prefer to use the MS technology, but miss the ability to
sexual deversity when it comes to gender of voices.
