Windows sound recourder is not istalled properly.RunREGSVR32 WavDest.dll.

When I tried to run REGSVR32 WavDest.dll I got an error 0x80070005

Anaybody has an idea why this is happening?

It's happening because REGSVR32 is trying to register the DLL but doesn't have the adequate permissions to do so.

You have to run REGSVR32 from an elevated command prompt -- as the Administrator. (And no, that's not the account you're using on a daily basis).

To spawn an elevated command prompt, enter "cmd" in the Start button area, and press Ctl-Shift-Enter (all at once). Accept the UAC prompt. The resulting command window will say "Administrator" in the title bar.
