I believe Microsoft Sam is installed by default with other Speech enabled
packages, I don't know of a direct download to restore the voice.

But following this may help you get Sam back into your list of choices:

Good luck,

Thanks

You now restored the voice using the Text to Speech Maker installer which
tries to use "SimSun" font for help and then you uninstalled

Veli-Pekka Taetilae is a grammar nazi in WebbIE and the speech synthesizer review page lacks TruVoice. It is a speech engine created by Lernout and Hauspie. The speech synthesizer includes 8 male and 2 female voices. Note that most of the misspellings (e.g. relativly instead of relatively in eSpeak and Finish instead of Finnish in ViaVoice) are not fixed.
