WinXP and MIDI devices

Could someone tell me what is the maximum number of MIDI devices(drivers) supported by Windows XP?

Thanks!

I believe the limit of 10 MIDI devices (from 98 & 2000... which is why I'm a bit surprised when I see people running/suggesting those OSs) is raised to 32 MIDI devices in XP.

Kim have you tested your midi timing? Hubis screwed mine up a bit. (not as bad as yoke though)

play a stream of 64th notes hihats from your sequencer to a sampler.(anything, doesnt matter if its creamware or hardware) all the same.

speed it up untill it becomes a tone.
the tone should be steady with no hiccups or wavering.
