[QUOTE="STAYS, post: 77846, member: 24895"] yea, I'm getting a similar problem with the microsoft sppech SDK 5.1 Nothing to do with MyVoice, as I haven't even installed that yet. With mine, after installation, I ran speech from control panel To start off, this took about 10 minutes to actually appear on the screen. After its loaded, when i click on one of the buttons (ie a tab, or a settings button) it appears to freeze. After leaving this for about 10 minutes, I came back to find the following error message: [CODE]The requested task cannot be carried out because the necessary speech engine could not be created. Please select a different engine and/or a different audio device.[/CODE] Then I click OK and everything freezes up again. I found a page on microsoft support about it. And it didn't help at all. [url]http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=838659[/url] They say there is a hotfix, but in order to get it they say I need to sign up for a support package or something of that sort. I'll keep messing with it to see what I can do. Also, someone mentioned that Microsoft speech SDK 6.1 is availible on the microsoft office 2003 cd. I have the cd, where is it located? :thx: Tim [/QUOTE]
