[python-win32] Exception '-2147221164' while using win32com.client.Dispatch("SAPI.SpVoice")

[Sai Ram]

Hello Tim,

   I really did not know that this value would make difference. Apologies
for the vague question. The actual exception is "-2147352567". Also, we
have around 5000 test scripts. Out of these, around 300 test scripts fails
with this exception. So, I do not doubt any system issues here.

   Thank you for your response. Appreciate it.
