Issues
Apr 17, 2017 Ragnar Trail Relays presented by Salomon are a mix of running, camping, team bonding and quirky music festivals. And, despite what your first thoughts are when you hear “all-night trail running relay,” this event is made for anyone who is interested in trail running. Here’s what you need to know about Ragnar Trail relays: It’s a Relay Race.
Dragon Naturally Speaking 10, the original version, will not install and run properly on your Windows 7 system. The original version was designed for systems running the 32-bit version of Windows Vista and older Windows operating systems. The application also does not support Windows 8. During Dragon Naturally Speaking 10’s installation process, the application's installation wizard informs you of the incompatibility and aborts the installation process. The installation issue is due to a problem with the configuration of Windows 7 and the location of the operating system’s files.
Resolution
Nuance, Dragon Naturally Speaking 10’s manufacturer, resolves the Windows 7 installation issue with Dragon Naturally Speaking 10.1. The latest release is free and available as a download from Nuance at the “Dragon Naturally Speaking 10.1” link (see Resources). The download is large -- 1.37GB for the Preferred version, 1.22GB for the Standard version and 1.31GB for the Professional version. You also need the serial number from Dragon Naturally Speaking 10 to start the download process.
DVD Version
You can also request a DVD containing the latest release if you are unable to download the application. To request a DVD, call 800-654-1187 and speak with a customer service representative. The DVD is not free, and Nuance charges $9.95 to cover the cost of the DVD, shipping and handling. The Nuance representative will process your payment and complete your order.
Warning
Dragon Naturally Speaking 10.1 is only for Windows 7 and systems running the 64-bit version of Vista. The application is not for older versions of the Windows operating system nor is it for systems running the 32-bit version of Vista. If running Dragon Naturally Speaking 10 on an older version of Windows, you can download the latest service pack for Dragon Naturally Speaking 10 via the application’s “Help” menu and clicking “Update.”
