Hi Pete,
I referring to the entries in the following registry key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Drivers32
Regarding Windows versions, I’m aiming to cover all versions from XP onwards.

Is this on Windows 10?
Also, are you seeing those midi ports enumerated in the registry section for
DirectMusic?

Hi All,
I wrote a user mode installable MIDI driver a while back, which seems to work
well.
I’m now writing a “proper” installer for it, and one of the things the
installer will need to do is add the appropriate registry entries.
Having had a look at the registry on my PC using RegEdit, there are a number of
MIDI drivers listed of the form, “midi”, “midi1”, “midi2”, and so forth.
Is there an upper limit on this number?
Obviously I can’t re-use an existing number, but if there is an upper limit and
all the numbers are taken, then I will need to abort the installation and alert
the user.
Kind Regards,
Chris Hubbard,
