A lot has changed over the years.Īlso, your microphone may have work just fine with ViaVoice, but depending upon the model of the Logitech microphone that you're using, it may not be suitable for DNS. You may require more than simply installing DNS Re: your current system. If you've been using ViaVoice this long, then I would hazard a guess that your current hardware configuration is also in the dark ages.

You can't even get a copy of it now and it definitely doesn't support anything other than Windows XP 32-bit. Lastly, ViaVoice was discontinued in terms of upgrading many, many years ago. However, remember that lacking specifics, it's like calling up your auto mechanic and telling him or her that your car does not start. The more specific you can be, the better we can assist you. Please be specific about your CPU make, model and speed (i.e., Core2tm Duo E8400, Core2tm Quad, Sandy Bridge - 2600, Ivy Bridge - latest and greatest Intel processors). However, before recommending upgrading to Dragon NaturallySpeaking, I/we need to know what your computer hardware specifications are (i.e., CPU make, model, speed, total amount of RAM). DNS 12 has several speech models that will accommodate most users systems. Unless you can find a Nuance vendor (reputable Nuance-certified) who still happens to have a previous version of DNS on the shelf and is willing to part with it, you're better off going with DNS 12. Stay away from eBay, and beware of geeks bearing gifts.


Those who usually sell older versions of DNS, or even current versions of DNS, are unreliable and unethical. Why you might find someone willing to sell their older version of DNS (i.e., 10.1 or 11.5), I do not recommend it. When new versions are released, previous versions are discontinued.
