Have you ever seen one of those movies where the computer geek sits there and talks to his computer and it understands him?
In this instructable I will go through the steps on how to set up a windows machine to do just that. Specifically how to setup the free program shoot and customize XML files to make it your own.

Signing UpStep 1Get shoot
First step of course would be to get the program shoot! Here is the download page the requirments are there. Now depending on which package you downloaded (The full .net framework and all or just shoot) will decide how you go about installing the program. I would rather think that i don't have to go through how to install a program, if you are looking into voice recognition you are no newb.
.You will also need a microphone for this(alright quality).
Now just a note: This program is designed to recognize commands search an XML file for those commands and then send out keystrokes. Mostly it is for gamers who just want to shout out there commands and thats perfectly fine keep following if thats all you want to do. If you want your computer to do tasks by a shout of your voice then keep following. But if you want to have your computer type your term paper just by saying it then sorry this is not for you. You would have to say each letter of the whole thing and it would get messy....

Sadly it only sends out one keystroke but if you really want it to type a full word then you can create a vbs script that sends keystrokes (look online on how to do that) and create a keyboard shortcut for it (detailed inside) then create a command for it. But that's an awefull lot of work if you only want to type a full word once
