A. Windows NT limitations.
B. Installing/uninstalling ViaVoice over other speech software.
=================================================================
-----------------------------------------------------------------
A. Windows NT limitations.
- You must have administrator privileges to install and uninstall
on Windows NT.
- If running IBM Antivirus for Windows NT, make sure you use
release 3.0 or later. Earlier releases conflict with ViaVoice
installation.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
B. Installing/uninstalling ViaVoice over other dictation
software.
Installing then uninstalling ViaVoice98 products over ViaVoice Runtime.
o If you install a ViaVoice 98 full product over an installation of the
ViaVoice Runtime and then uninstall.
If you install ViaVoice 98 over the ViaVoice Runtime
and then uninstall ViaVoice 98, and then uninstall, but want
to continue using the Runtime, you must uninstall then reinstall
the Runtime into the same directory. Your personal dictation data
(added words, enrollments, etc.) will be saved.
o For best recognition, do not use the "(migrated)" enrollment
If you install ViaVoice over a previous ViaVoice or
VoiceType product, the installation program migrates the users
of the previous product to ViaVoice 98. User data such as
added words, macros, as well as enrollments are migrated to
ViaVoice 98. The descriptions of enrollments migrated from the
previous product contain the word "(migrated)". In addition to
the migrated enrollments ViaVoice 98 creates a new enrollment
for each user whose description does not contain the word
"(migrated)". For best recognition results, you must select
this new enrollment from the "The user is enrolled to use:"
dropdown box in the User page of ViaVoice Options, and then run
the Enrollment program.
o Installing over VoiceType 3.0.x, Simply Speaking, or
Simply Speaking Gold.
ViaVoice is a continuous speech product. If you install it on a
computer where a discrete speech product such as VoiceType 3.0.x or
Simply Speaking is already installed, be sure that you install in the
same directory as the previous product. Your added words and other
personal data will migrate to ViaVoice 98, and ViaVoice 98 will save
your personal speech files from the previous product in the directory
"~users30." Your VoiceType 3.0.x and Simply Speaking enrollments
cannot be used by ViaVoice 98. You must re-enroll in ViaVoice 98 to
increase recognition accuracy and performance.
If you uninstall ViaVoice 98 and reinstall VoiceType 3.0.x or
Simply Speaking, you must reinstall in the same directory. You
must also copy the subdirectories in the "~users30" directory
to the Users directory in order to restore the user data of the
previous product.
o Installing then uninstalling ViaVoice 98 over Olympus or
other ViaVoice-based dictation software.
If you install ViaVoice 98 over Olympus or other dictation
software based on ViaVoice, and then uninstall ViaVoice 98, and
you want to continue using your other dictation software (such
as Olympus transcription), you must uninstall the other
dictation software, then reinstall it in the same directory.
Your personal dictation data (added words, enrollments, etc.)
will be saved.
o Ignore page fault when installing Olympus transcription over
ViaVoice 98.
Sometimes when you install Olympus transcription over ViaVoice
98, the Olympus transcription installation menu might cause a
page fault. Simply close the page fault dialog box, and
proceed with Olympus transcription installation. The Olympus
installation will complete successfully.
