Alex,

Thanks for your feedback.  I have made some changes to my system based on 
recommendations from this listserve.  I have reinstalled Jaguar, reinstalled 
VV, applied all upgrades to Jaguar and VV, purchased a new headphone setup (VXI 
Talkpro Xpress with the Andrea USB Pod), run disk repair and repaired 
permissions.  The correct microphone is selected in sound input in preferences. 
I still can't get the Voice Center or Speakpad to work.  I can run Voice Setup 
ok but I can't transition to the Speakpad after the initial voice training.  I 
don't think it's the mic since VV does recognize my voice in the set up 
process.  I was originally using the headset that came with VV.  The new 
headset made no difference.  I can't figure it out.
