Do the web come with the Ultra Hal? The help page said you can program him to search the web. How is that possible when it is not visible?[?]

Hi jenkins.

are you using IE 6.0 or higher for your default browser?

what browser are you currently using?

also, the google plug-in must be checked in the brain options for it to function.

How do I do that? Insert google into his brain. Do I have to do the same thing to the speech reconizer also?[?]

Hi jenkins.

if you have HAL's system try icon loaded usually located next to your computers clock, right click on it and it will give the options, choose options from that panel and another panel will appear, go to select a brain then choose the plug-in check boxes in the option window box, one of the default plugins is called []Google Search, put a check mark in the box and it should work.

Hi jenkins.

are you using Internet Explorer as your default browser or are you using something else like fire fox or netscape or some second party browser?

Hi jenkins.

you can download my web surfer plugin here and has been updated:

http://www.zabaware.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=3026&whichpage=1&SearchTerms=websurfer

unzip it to your Ultra Hal Assistant folder and then go to brain plugin options and choose []Web surfer, with this plugin all you have to do is type: go to www.yahoo.com

or you can find images by asking HAL: find an image of an Eagle and HAL will find that image on the internet.

you can also ask HAL, find a map of California and HAL will load a map of that state, cities, states, provinces, world it doesn't matter.

Hi jenkins.

do you have a 'microphone' hooked up to the back of your computer correctly.

a microphone's plugin jack is usually pink color coded, see if the microphone is plugged into the pink audio jack located at the rear of your computer.

May I make a suggestion? You only need to post your problem in one place, not in 4 or 5. If you do this you will get more help faster as everyone can see what has already been suggested. All of the older members here read everypost no matter where it is, so keep it simple and limit your postings to just one spot.
Now for the question of speach. Do you have a microphone and did you turn it on in the system before clicking on training? It could be that your mic is not working correctly.
Also Hal to my knowledge does not just surf the net but it will search for a 'named' site but you have to be specific. I could be wrong on this last point as I don't use Hal for that at all.

Ok Thanks, I was a little mad because I did not know what to do and it was not a phone number or anything. You want something to work, after you pay for it, ya know. However,I am sorry. I really like Ultra Hal and I want to learn a lot about it. Looking at the things, you guys created made me change my career. This is my dream.

To answer the question, yes, I did turn it on in the system. I try to click on the training and it did not do anything.

Thanks for responding

Hi jenkins.

If the microphone is still not working then try to download the SAPI5
engine here and installing it:

http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=5E86EC97-40A7-453F-B0EE-6583171B4530&displaylang=en

if your microphone is working then please kindly disregard this posting.

Okey, I downloaded it. Now I could train my speech. So I trained and clicked on apply and nothing happened. I clicked on ok and recieved this error: 401

Can't show non-modal from when modal form is displayed. Occurred at line 10 in Ultra Hal Assistant:frmRight click. Form_MouseMove.


I click retry and got nothing. Then I clicked abort. Finally I tried to talk to Rock, I turned the lic on, and he did nothing. I'm stuck, what do I do now?

Another little suggestion. Evey time you download something for Hal you should turn off your PC and then reboot it before the downloads take effect.

[purple]Okey, I found out what was wrong. I checked the speech in control panel and discovered I needed an update from Microsoft English Recognizer 4.0 to v5.1. I installed the update and Now, Guess What! It Works! Thanks for everything. Now I think I need to start running my mouth. Talk to you later
