I seemed to have got it working as follows;

• Once software installed connect Philips speechmikepro to USB port

o Run controller setup wizard from Options and set options as below

o Run audio setup wizard from dictation menu to set record and playback volumes

o If not working may need to use speechmikepro from a working computer and then re-try with existing microphone – bit quirky sometimes!

try it and let me know how you get on - we seem to up and running with all users now

I have the same problem. For many years I have been using earlier versions of Express Dictate with earlier versions of Philips speech Mike. I had no problem using the speech Mike with express dictate version 4.05. However, when I broke my speech Mike and replaced it with version 5274, that would no longer work properly with Express Dictate, either version 4.05 or 5.33. The rollerball and mouse button operate, the other buttons appear to register with Express Dictate but they don't translate through into making it operate. The result is that now I can only use Express Dictate by opening the window on screen and operating it with the keyboard. I have two colleagues with the same problem.

have installed express dictate v5.32 for 8 users all using philips speechmikepro lfh5274. works perfectly for the first 2 workstations (all dell optiplex 780's). But .. in all the others it fails to activate recording and doesn't pick up audio signal in audio setup wizard. all the sound card settings seem identical . speechmikepro work with other application eg windows voice recorder
