    Windows Server 2008 and Speech Recognition

    Is speech recognition supported on Windows Server 2008?
    The following C# code fails with a PlatformNotSupportedException("No recognizer is installed.") in the LoadGrammer() method.
    
        recognizer = new SpeechRecognitionEngine();
        recognizer.LoadGrammar(new DictationGrammar());
    I verified that the SAPI 5.3 is installed by checking the version number for C:\windows\system32\speech\sapi.dll and I have also have installed the Desktop Experience feature (just in case).  The code above still fails and there's no Speech/Recognition icon in the Control Panel.
    How do I install an English speech recognizer on Server 2008?

    PS: My goal here is to build a server capable of batch recognizing text from recorded WAVE files (not to use Server 2008 as a desktop machine).
