Q: I want to write a book,can I use this to save a lot of time and pain?

I wanted to write a book and tried many times to make it easier by using Dragon NaturallySpeaking. The program had the opposite effect. I spent so much effort trying to get the program to do its job, I could not "get words on paper." Finally, yesterday, I gave up and removed all Nuance files from my computer. I found a better way (for me) to write. I use Microsoft Word to type at my own speed, not worrying about misspellings (because that would slow me down.) Then, when I've finished my thoughts for that session, I use spell-check to come up with a well-written piece. Voila! Easier and far faster than Dragon NaturallySpeaking.

Q: Does this software work for transcribing meetings live or from an audio recording - or will it only transcribe one voice?

Depends on your expectations. Unless punctuation is spoken ("period...new para") the spoken words will be "run on". However, this can be corrected manually when completed. Will transcribe multiple voices although I believe it "trains itself" over time to work best with primary user. If users announce themselves ("new paragraph. Rick Henderson speaking" the rough transcript will have more clarity.

Q: how often (if) does it crash? I have that problem with Dragon 12.

like I said before if you've ever read any of my question and answers. I've had Dragon from the beginning and there was a problem with 12 crash, but I don't think it was really the program more like how it's set up. If you open it the same way all the time you don't have a problem when you open it up in different ways. It would give you a problem, you'll find it when you load the program. It will give you different instances to start the program in Windows 8.1. I started from the start screen, not from the desktop. When I did I would have problems with it. Loading or not recognizing me. Once I got on 12.5 was a little better and I believe 13 is even more so. 10 and 11 didn't have these problems. So each generation has its little quirks about how it starts and the recovery process is a lot better now if it should go down I usually just and the CD and have the program fix the problem. But to your question 12. I was suggest that you uninstall the program with the uninstall or from the website and reinstall and remember only start the program from one instance I start on Windows 8.1 from the start screen, not the desktop and give the program time to really start don't start pushing the button over and over expecting it to speed things up. Let the program started its own time. Everyone's in a hurry and that hurry will give you a problem. These are just my observations and problems. I've solved in this manner. But remember, if you're going to uninstall the program uninstall it completely so that your key will be freed , otherwise you use them all up the Dragon people are pretty good about helping you out, but you've got to be diligent about what you're doing

Q: does it work with windows xp

I use it with Windows 8, but I would assume it would work with XP.
