How to download Microsoft Speech Recognition Engine v5.0
It is my understanding that you need the Microsoft Speech Recognition Engine v5.0 to use the speech recognition features in Win XP, I can't find where to download it. Once downloaded will it incorporate itself with applications like notepad and Office ! ( I know you can do it through Office as well but I am looking for the Non Office option for now )

Oh - I'm trying to get a microphone working again - which hasn't since the hard drive was reformatted and Windows XP & all apps were reinstalled. I'm trying to use it (once again) for voice calls.

The Speech check box is not available in Start/Run/Control Panel/Regional and Language Options/Languages tab/Details button.
It does show Settings (English - US) as the Default input language, and Installed Services shows English - US/Keyboard/US. I tried adding a new language, but it would not come up with a checkbox for Speech anywhere.
Am I missing a step?
