Hi folks!
A strange thing has just happened.
When I tried to open VAC I got this message:
"SAPI failed to initialize" So thinking this was a VAC problem re-installed V 1.8.5 still no joy
Decided to look in Control Panel, Speech Properties to see just what the prob was. Clicked on 'Speech' and received:
"The requested task cannot be carried out because the necessary engine could not be created. Please select a different engine and/or a different audio device"
By engine does this refer to Microsoft English Recognizer v5.1??? The audio input device is SB X-Fi (CCEO).
Just as things were going so smoothly too!
Cheers
