Hi !
I'm trying to install Dragon Naturally Speaking in a WINE "fake windows" setup, and I have troubles with InstallShield.
I tried this a while ago (with wine 20031212) and had *partial* success : The app installed, by I had trouble with the character set settings and botched the voice training, 'cause I couldn't read the screen ...
I reinstalled a new machine recently (the previous one died due to a failing power supply ...). Wine is now 20040716. I managed to install Office 2000 (and IE6, which is needed for MS Access ...), along with a couple other apps, working *great*. Note : yes, I *did* install DCOM98.
However, any time I try to install Dragon Naturally Speaking, I stumble on the fact that InstallShield is unable to see the free space on the system "disk" : according to the log, Wine reports -1 Mb free, while Dragon tells it needs 40 Mb. Therefore, InstallShield aborts the installation.
Has anyone any idea on how to pass this ? The relevant files are PS'd to this message.
BTW : Any exeriences/successes/failures with Dragon Naturally Speaking ? That's the one application I miss on Linux : since IBM botched its earlier attemps to port ViaVoice on modern Linuxes and withdrawed it, no one has (yet) created a working VR package ...
