Windows version: will this version only work on vista ultimate as seems to be indicated?

At http://www.nuance.com/naturallyspeaking/preferred/sysreqs.asp VISTA is listed as a system requirement so I am assuming, even though I couldn't find it on the box at Staples, that, at least those programs being currently produced, are indeed Vista compatible. For those who already have this version, there is a patch available to upgrqade to Vista. You need to fill out an online form with name/address/phone/e-mail to get a PIN to access the upgrade area. Once there you need to have your product code number to punch in to get the upgrade but it's well worth the effort.

Yes I am currently using with a vista machine, installs and runs without any issues.

I've installed the software on both an WinXP machine and a Win7 64 bit one. Only two suggestions, first make sure you've got the right software (I mean 64 bit or 32 bit) since the drivers are different. Secondly, and this is a tip for most Vista program installations. Instead of just running the installer, right click on it and choose "Run as administrator' very often that gets around installation issues.

Really can't say. I use XP on my desktop and Vista on my laptop and it works great with both. Sorry I can't speak fo Windows 7.

I don't know for a fact (or from experience), but 64-bit driver support for Vista usually includes Windows 7 and vice-versa. I think it will work.

I'm using Vista 64 bit and it works excellent with my Vista, I can't truly say a factual yes but, I feel it should work without any problems.

No, it works on XP and earlier. Won't even do Vista!!! (Plus it comes from China so waiting will kill you) Save your time/money - there are better solutions. I ended up getting a used Lexicon for $20. I am very happy with it.

Hi,I still have the packaging and it lists Windows Vista as a supported OS, it also lists Windows 7 (no mention of 32 or 64 bit) but I can confirm it works well with Windows 7 64-bit.Hope this helps you in taking the plunge.Listiel W.

Brenda, I purchased this product in 2010 and my computer had Vista... I am not sure if this will work for you.. they may have done some updates to their program. I would check into it first. That being said... I do love the program. I am sure if they have done any updates it will be just as good....

No, and not Vista or 7 either if you have a 64-bit install. The drivers on the website were not built correctly. I opened a ticket and am trying to get them to fix it. I'm a software developer and have given them exact information on what the problem is.

Yes - it does. That's the Windows version that I'm running and it worked perfectly.

I honestly don't know. I bought it for my child since I used it growing up. We just popped it into our laptop that has Vista6 on it and it worked! Didn't have to download anything.

Game runs awesome on my Windows 8 laptop. Due to that, it should run great on Windows 7 as well. If that's not enough, I have friends using Windows 7 that play the game fine. As for Vista, can't say for sure, but probably fine, since the game still works on Windows XP and 7/8, the older and newer versions.

I am running it on my Vista Ultimate machine and everything is working fine. Only one time did it have an data access anomaly but that was due to a Vista update gone bad, which a reboot fixed. Otherwise I am running a virtual machine off of this drive that I use for development purposes and so far no issues even after some serious rough handling.
