  1. Windows Speech Recognition/Dictation


    When using speech recognition/dictation, it turns off stops listening, every time I start a new line or new paragraph. In other words, when your trying to dictate a document, it stops listening shuts off every time you start a new line or new paragraph. Then, you have to click on the microphone again to get it started. This makes it virtually unusable. Any suggestions?

    Windows Speech Recognition/Dictation

    speech recognition on Windows XP?

    Is there a way to get some sort of speech recognition software for XP? I saw an article on Microsoft on how to get it to work, but it says I have to download the Windows Speech Engine or something like that and it's not available to download.

    My grandma likes the idea of talking to her computer lol. She wants to dictate her stories because she has a hard time typing for a long time because she's got arthritis and all that.
