Good Day

I set my device name as "Multi-Channels Audio Device" in its string descriptors.

In Win2K,
When i do a
mixerGetDevCaps((UINT) hMixer,&caps,sizeof(caps));
i get a return name as "USB Audio Device"

In WinXP,
When i do a
mixerGetDevCaps((UINT) hMixer,&caps,sizeof(caps));
i get a return name as "Multi-Channels Audio Device"

How come i couldnt get back my device name in 2K mode? Is it the function not supported? I did not declare any "USB Audio Device" name in my descriptors, but it appears from nowhere or is it from the window?

Anyone please enlighten me?
Thanks a Lot!!
