[Ok Tinman, you indeed make SOME valid points. I am sure that AI did not drop into the laps of the people at Zaba. However, their add did indeed say that you could communicate with HAL by way of voice. I have made numerous atempts and have finnaly had some success using Sdk sapi 4.0a suit. I have yet to make 5.1 work. Anyway, I understand the problems in dealing with this high tech issue. What I don't understand is the fact that I have repeadedly contacted Zabaware with no response what so ever. I have read to many topics that are very close in nature to mine to believe that the seller is not aware of the difficulty. Well anyway after downloading just over one Gig of SDK SAPI etc etc. I can carry on somewhat of a conversation with Hal. Problem is I purchased Hal for my 9 year old daughter and she is brighter tham me and expects more from Hal. You see, I am not bitching. I am looking for some assistance in solving the problem. On the other hand, I will push until a solution is at hand. Any help is appreciated.]

[Okay I'll try and answer myself. As so many have had the same problem, with few successes, It must be someplace in Zabaware. I emailed them and have yet to get a reply..HEY ZABA help me out or refund my bucks dudes]

Ultra Hal 7.0 / OLD NEWS SPEECH RECOGNITION

« on: July 22, 2002, 09:49:17 pm »

I have tried and tried and tried and Hal will not learn to recognize what I am saying. I am using microsoft English Recognizer V5.1 This is what came with Hal. I have trained forever and can get it to take dictation etc. But, when I say something to HAL, he/she has no clue--just puts words in. I noticed many discussion about this 4 or 5 months ago. No solutions though. Everyone kwept telling everyone to do more training but that did not work. Has Zaba found a fix??? If not why do they advertise all is well??
I am using a P4 proccessor
plenty of Ram and XP!!!HELP!!!
