After Installing the Microsoft Speech Engine SDK
It is easy to find out whether or not you have the Microsoft Speech Engine properly installed on your PC. Simply open up your computer's control panel by left-clicking on the desktop Start button and selecting Control Panel from the menu. On the Control Panel, select Sound, Speech and Audio Devices.

NOTE: If you do not see this icon, then you do not have the Speech Recognition engine properly installed.

Double-click the Speech icon from your control panel and open up the Speech Properties dialog box.

NOTE: If you do not have a Speech Recognition tab in the Speech Properties window as in the image below, then you do not have the Speech Recognition engine installed properly.

In the Language section on the Speech Recognition tab of the Speech Properties dialog box, you will see a drop-down box. Please ensure that you have it set to:

Microsoft English Recognizer v5.1

Unless you are going to have more than one person using the speech application, leave the Default Speech Profile selected.

Set up the Audio Input, then use the Configure Microphone option to the optimum levels.

EXTREMELY IMPORTANT: USE A HIGH-QUALITY MICROPHONE HEADSET.

A high-quality microphone headset can dramatically improve the accuracy of speech recognition by your computer.

VOICE TRAINING - TRAINING - TRAINING!!!
