>From a longtime lurker - I am spending a lot of time doing research and writing these days, and I am having a computer problem that I do not understand and hopefully one of you can offer some insight.
I have an old Dell desktop computer [it was free], Pentium 4 CPU, 2.8Ghz, 2.49 GB of Ram, running a legal XP Professional with Service Pack 3. Paging file is 4,000 MB. Things go pretty well until I am using my Dragon Naturally Speaking, version 10 [Gerry inspired me] to edit and add text to my manuscript [180 pages, MS Word 2007]. It usually is fast and pretty accurate until I stop for a moment to do something else, and then it frequently starts to have long pauses, most of the time followed by a message that it is recovering from low system resources. It will freeze up for a minute and then type what I have said. If I have gotten impatient and moved using the keyboard it will type what I said a minor two ago where ever I am the. I am well above the minimum resources for the program, and often just close it out in frustration and go back to my typing - but I do find the dictation easier until is screws up. I cannot figure out why the stalling and low system resources warning, and am assuming I have some setting that is off, but not evident to me. Anyone with ideas [presented for a moderate computer user level] to share would be greatly appreciated.
