Ultra Hal 7.0 / Re: New user...

Okay, I believe I found that MSAgent said above in KB969168. Don't know what it did. Reinstalling Hal 6.2 right now in Program Files (not x32) and need reboot. I did not however turn off Internet/ firewalls or anything but that really shouldn't bother the install if it went through uninterrupted.
I did reinstall it not too long ago but in (x32) again. I left the mic on but it seemed to only listen to when my speakers went off, not when I spoke. That could have been my recording settings but restart should be next.


Okay did the restart. Same problems. It seems that it only likes listening to my speakers because MSN and a game I play that make noises are recognized by the mic. Has anyone had this problem before?

Ultra Hal 7.0 / New user...

Hello, I am a new user with Ultra Hal Assistant 6.2. I have installed it but installed it just now for whatever reason I had. Most likely the trial time it had. It is a great program it seems however and I really like it. I messed around with the Ultra Hal Notepad to Speech before this and enjoyed it well.

It is unfortunate that Windows 7 has problems with older programs and I would think Ultra Hal is quite old. I am surprised that there are still posts on a forum like this. Before I do anything more though with my Ultra Hal Assistant is there anything I should know about it running on a Windows 7 x64 computer? With what short run I did have on it the voice recognition did not want to work for me. The only button that actually worked for me in fact was the engine for the voice it was hearing. Only had Microsoft 8.0 languages set in there. The test button didn't do anything as well as anything else. Even after turning on the voice recognition it could not hear me. I have my microphone as part of a Logitech Orbit AF web cam however I have in my sound settings my sound card set as my default recording device and my Orbit set as default communication device. What settings would I need to have set when I do get the program working with my voice?
