Hello everybody,
I had the same problem some times ago, with IIS3.
The problem was that IIs didn't have th "MIDI" files mime type.

So, I added it, and now it works.

Here are the 2 documents that helped me do the change :
http://x2.dejanews.com/getdoc.xp?AN=352962285&CONTEXT=896945191.12779549&hit

and Micriosoft knowledge base article number Q142558
Regards, Frédéric (frederic.grondin@irm.ravnal.fr)
PS :
The HTML code I used in the HTML page was the following :
<bgsound SRC="../music/song.mid" HIDDEN=true VOLUME=100 LOOP=TRUE
AUTOSTART=TRUE NAME=music_embed MASTERSOUND>
<EMBED SRC="../music/song.mid" HIDDEN=true VOLUME=100 LOOP=TRUE
AUTOSTART=TRUE NAME=music_embed MASTERSOUND>
