Hello all.

I have been using the beta releases of VB .NET 2005 (I must say that theyre very good), and I recently switched over to the final build, complete with the .NET framework 2.0. Now, I was using the MS SpeechLib to speak using the Text-To-Speech engine thru the speakers. This was working fine throughout the beta builds, but when I switched over to the final, it has problems. See, randomly, whenever I call the speech library, my app crashes with the following error:


Exception from HRESULT: 0x80045063

Now, I searched the internet and found absolutely zilch for that above error. This, by the way, was the output of "Ex.MEssage" string using that Try...Catch deal. The output of "Ex.InnerException" is null. There doesn't seem to be a pattern here; it could be any time throughout the app that it could crash. It's a simple command-line app, and just speaks text through the speakers. Im really not sure why this is happening. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
