Speech Recognition

I have been successfully using speech recognition but it has suddenly stopped
working. It allows me to configure the mic and go through all of the
training. However, it won't start to allow me to dictate in Word, either in
tools (where it is showing) or in the control panel. It looks as if it is
about to load and then just stops after a second or two. The language bar is
showing. I've tried everything to get it going! I have Office Small Business
Edition 2003 with Vista. I'm getting desperate - any suggestions?

It may be best if you use Microsoft Office 2007 becuase this is fully
compatable with Windows Vista and speech recongnition
