> each half hour, both hour and half hour, or you can turn it

> TC supports playing mp3 files, wav files, and wma files.
> Add as many sound
> files to the hourly chimes list as you want it's your choice!

> TC is more than just a talking clock program. It has a

> reminder and then lets
> you
> set the date and time the reminder should appear. The
> reminder system also
> lets you set an optional sound to play for each reminder.
> Whatever sounds

> in your hourly chime list, you can use any of those sounds
> to attach to a
> reminder. So, for example, if you have to take your dog to
> the vet on
> Friday,
> you set a reminder to appear on Friday and set the sound
> for the reminder to
> be dog. On Friday, the reminder appears, you hear the dog
> bark, and then the
> reminder is on the screen. This can be a very useful
> feature for many. Be
> creative with it!
>
> Another beneficial feature of the reminder system is
> reminders can be
> automatically read by the program. If auto read reminders
> is checked, when a
> reminder
> appears, it will be automatically read to you by the program.

> System Requirements
>
> TC requires Microsoft Text to Speech to be installed on
> your computer and
> DirectX version 8.0 or higher. If you are running Windows
> xp, you already
> have
> these files on your computer and there is no need to
> download them. If you
> are not running Windows xp, we would like to invite you to
> download free
> copies of these files from our website and install them
> prior to TC being
> released. This way, when the program is available for
> download, you will
> already have the necessary files installed on your computer
> and can begin to
> use the program upon installing it. Follow this link to our
> website and you
> can locate the links to download the setup files under the

> Requirements"
