You do of course realize that XP will be unsupported by MSFT in about 5 years, right? You should seriously consider supporting Vista and beyond because you artificially limit your customer base by only supporting old operating systems.

Vista is not supported) but the wodmessage model is in use till XP SP3, so i can use it, but the documentation /samples seem to be scarce. the wdmaud.drv executable is based on this model. Anyways, if you can let me know how the kmixer would create n no. of streams( n different media players playing songs), without mixing any of them for a WDM driver based of MSVAD multstr, i would be happy Anyways, the issue i raised earlier in this thread, has been solved. Thanks for everyone to help me out.
