Today morning, exploring my ThinkPad for its features, came across this Speech Recognition application from Microsoft. It took me through the wizard to setup the component which also involved certain training to the application, so that it recognizes my voice and words correctly during dictation in office files.
I also underwent additional training lessons, for the computer to reach better accuracy. Thinking the setup being successful, it would save my effort and time to type emails in office. It was time to try this out in MS-Word, I pronounced “Resource Augmentation”. Here is what it typed for several repeats:

Microsft's voice recognition is the worst voice recognition s/w that you can experience.
It's tuned to an American accent and responds very badly to the Indian accent.
I've been using Dragon Naturally Speaking for about 10years now and it give me 99% accuracy.
If you are interested in voice recognition do give DNS a try.

It didnt seem an accent issue to me as it was perfectly able to recognise my words during the training. Also, i was trying in my UK accent.
Voice recognition by Google app installed on my cell phone is working perfectly well, without a single mistake.
Microsoft must seriously think of working on the tool.
