Dragon NaturallySpeaking 8 witn Windows Vista installation

I have trouble to install Dragon NaturallySpeaking 8 on my computer running Windows Vista. I get a message saying that there are compatibility problems. There do seem to be updates or patches available on the web site of Nuance.

Found this article:

Excerpt:

Installation on Windows Vista

Dragon Version 10 is compatible with all editions of Windows Vista. Versions 8.x, 9.0, 9.1 of the Dragon does not install or run on Windows Vista and. (9.5 and above works on Windows Vista.) If you upgrade a computer from an earlier version of Windows to Windows Vista, and the machine has Version 8.x, 9.0 or 9.1 installed Dragon, this version of Dragon will not work after the upgrade to Windows Vista. All these versions user profiles remain intact and can be upgraded when you install Dragon Version 9.5 or later.

    I think the article MS says it all: to repair Windows you need a disc of Microsoft Vista.

    Alternatives to reinstall the entire system use the Toshiba recovery disc that contains a picture of the factory settings. Have you created this disk?

    In general, yes your reinstall Dell drive is identical to a disc to install Windows genuine.

    The differences are not applicable for the repair procedure. (FYI - Toshiba and HP Vista, the disks cannot be used to perform a repair install, while gateway disks will work for Vista)

    Hello

    Know what type of network card you have and download the drivers of its supplier.

    It doesn't matter what it is always a good idea before re-install/upgrade to log on to the computer support page, download independent drivers from there and put them on a flash drive.

  • Legaly how to get windows vista Installer?

    So, I bought the laptop with a windows vista. On the side rear of the computer, is the license key. When I buy my computer, nobody gives me windows cd, then, how legaly get the installer of windows vista? I don't want to go to shop, pay a lot of money for the cd. Maybe I can somehow download it? (Sru for my bad English) Waiting for answer :)

    There is no legal downloads of Vista installation discs.  Contact the people bought you from (or better, the manufacturer of the computer) and see if they'll sell you a copy at a reduced price and if not, at least get them to send you a set of recovery disc (for a small fee) in order to have a way to recover your system if it fails and needs to be reinstalled. Then ask if your computer has a recovery Partition, and if you can make your own disks Reccovery (and ask them exactly how to do this).  If you know someone with a genuine drive to Installation of Vista of the size of the bit, you can make a copy of their record (they are not marked as read) and then you will also only available for installation of not only but also for the recovery and repair options is not available on the recovery discs they provide or you can do.

    I hope this helps.

  • Ask about the loss of my windows vista installation media.

    Hello

    I had a Windows Vista Home premium installation DVD as well as the purchase of my Dell laptop, however I lost my installation media but have the COA label with me. My query is, can I get a downloaded version of Windows vista from Microsoft and use the existing serial key or should I get a new copy of a store licensed?

    Thank you and best regards,
    Biju.

    There is no Vista free download legal available.

    Call Dell and ask them to send a recovery disk/s Vista set.

    Normally, they do this for a cost of $ small.

  • I formatted my hard drive and can't find my windows vista installation disc, can I download it?

    x 32-bit

    If your vista is preinstalled and you still have the PK on your COA, borrow from someone different windows vista OEM version.

    If you bought separately (not OEM), then borrow another windows vista RETAIL copy.

    That would be casual piracy but, there is nothing you can do.

    in any case, it won't work if you don't have a genuine microsoft product key.

    If you are unable to activate, call microsoft product activation.

    NOTE: Make sure that you borrow the exact and the same architecture/version/edition.

    for example, the name of the product that is written on your COA is vista Home premium, then borrow OEM de Microsoft windows vista Home premium.

    When all else fails, buy Windows 7.
