    Speech tutorial not working


    Hi windowers,
    I have a problem using the windows speech tutorial. when ever i load up the tutorial it turns speech recognition off, so i can't use voice commands in the tutorial. if i cntrl-tab back to the desktop the right click menu is all grayed out on the speech recognition bar, if i quit the tutorial the speech menu comes back to usable.

    any ideas?

    I'm using an inbuilt realtek mic in an acer laptop, and inbuilt realtek HD audio. could it be my 64bit operating system causing troubles? also when not doing the tutorial the program responds to my commands, just they aren't the right commands.

Hi, just installed the latest Dragon Speech Recognition 12.5 which is excellent and works fine on its own with the mike by the camera in the laptop cover, but can't seem to get a new headset with mike to work with Dragon at all, which is puzzling as the headset mike and camera mike separately work...
I have used speech recognition on my computer before, with a minor issue of it giving me grief over specific words. I haven't run it in a while and discovered it wasn't working right tonight.
