Thanks Jeff and Uwe for your response.

 I followed what you both asked me to do -- set the thread priority to
TIME_CRITICAL and disabled Driver Verifier in my system. And I really
got excellent result/performance.

   But I am just wondering, is there any thing can be done in the
driver (XP miniport driver) side?  Please let me know if you have any
suggestion.

Thanks again.

Regards,
