Hi Les, You do that to adjust the VO voice that you have selected, that is the voice that reads the screen and stuff. I’m talking about the system voice, the one that gives you system alerts, speaks at login,, etc. That control isn’t in the menu that you’re talking about. Thanks, though. Cheers, Donna
