title: voice record (winmm.dll) using C#.net
body: <p>My requirement was to build an utility which could record voice (through mic) and save on disk .wav files as desktop and web app. for specific users so i chose activeX technology as i didn't find any other better way (may be you know and can guide me.. would be more than welcome)</p>
  
  <p>I used winmm.dll (aka Media control interface (MCI)) and it is working perfectly fine but on specific computers like when i run it on vista, it works fine and on win server 2008 but on windows 2003 and xp it's not working .. just working is there any prereq.. which needs to be there or what i should do to make it work on other flavors of windows. </p>
  
  <p>I don't mind in using DirectSound if some1 recommends with some sample code to record/save/play sample :)</p>
