With a message like that, the first thing I would do is to install 
the SRBox device driver.  If you cannot find the installation program 
on your E-Prime CD, download it from the Misc section of the PST 
Download Area, 
http://support.pstnet.com/e%2Dprime/support/download.asp?Type=Misc 
(you will have to login).  Better yet, just reinstall E-Prime from 
scratch and make sure that you install the SRBox driver when asked.

Beyond that, make sure that the E-Prime settings for port, baud rate, 
and CPS match those of your SRBox.  Then, according to my SRBox 
manual (I have never used a microphone myself), the voice key should 
appear as button 6.  Finally, make sure your microphone is compatible 
with the SRBox, e.g., see the PST Forum thread at 
http://support.pstnet.com/forum/Topic395-8-1.aspx .
