Hi

Is it just me/my system or do other people find the Vista speech recognition
stuff to be useless?

I have been through the whole of the training sessions, but still find that
it is hopelessly inaccurate. And yes I do have a decent quality microphone.

Would be interested to hear if anyone has it working proficiently.

Thanks

Have you spent time going through the tutorials and training it? I
found it to work better than the XP tablet voice recognition, and I like
the added functionality. I don't like Vista on the whole, but I find
one redeeming feature it has is the improved voice recognition.

Yes, done all that - but since you can attest to it working, then I'll
persevere. I just didn't to spend loads of time and then find out no-one
rates it.

Thanks for the reply
