If so, how do you know it's repeating? Are you spewing any debug information to the debugger? If you send a sound to the normal audio output device and then break in the debugger, you will hear the last bufferful repeated forever. This is just the way sound cards work. They have to be told to stop playing, and while you're in the debugger, it can't process interrupts to know that playing should stop. It's quite normal. As soon as you step or run in the debugger, it will start handling interrupts again and move on to the next sample. > (cannot step this as XP is free build). That's not true at all. You can step and breakpoint all you want, in either the checked or free build. > Is there any way to stop nt (or whatever) repeating the file. There's just not enough information here. Can you describe the scenario in a little more detail? -- Tim Roberts, timr@xxxxxxxxx Providenza & Boekelheide, Inc. ****************** WDMAUDIODEV addresses: Post message: mailto:wdmaudiodev@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subscribe: mailto:wdmaudiodev-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=subscribe Unsubscribe: mailto:wdmaudiodev-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe Moderator: mailto:wdmaudiodev-moderators@xxxxxxxxxxxxx URL to WDMAUDIODEV page: http://www.wdmaudiodev.com/
