Hello,

In Vista, I like the per-application volume control feature. Does one
exist for Windows XP SP2 with a freeware third party or hack? I get
annoyed having to readjust my volumes for audios that I listen to often
like games, videos, music, etc.

Thank you in advance. :)

XP was not designed to have a per application volume control.  MS did
this design in Vista only.

I know, but I was hoping there was a third party that did have this. I
found out one exists for Mac OS X, but it is more of a trick/hack.
