{RESOLVED}speech recognition mess

[salbast]

OK... I enabled speech recognition and I realized that my computer can't handle it. All I wanted to do is check it out. Now the problem is that the only way that I am able to disable it is through Word and going into word is no picnic for me because it starts picking up sound and tries to figure out what I'm trying to say, this goes with everything else and it's just a big mess. Can somebody PLEASE help me. Thank you

Mute your microphone!! Double click the little speaker icon on the lower right by the clock.

hi! i already muted the microphone and unplugged it because muting it mysteriously didn't work, but i want to turn the service off completely so it doesn't run in the background. does anybody know how to do that?

Wow another XP mess. I would think that it would be in the Control Panel under Speech Recognition. However after further research I have found that it is buried. Check out this link:

This will take you to a seach page with all the information on how to turn it off or how to remove it.

Hope this helps
