Notes

• If you select a different speech recognition engine, you must restart each speech-enabled program before the new engine is used.
• Each speech recognition engine is language-specific, and may be region-specific. For example, the Microsoft English ASR Version 5 Engine is intended for speakers of U.S. English. British, Australian, and other non-U.S. English speakers may have difficulty using it, due to variations in accent.
