Solution 1

Do you see the "Length" parameter on the RtlCopyMemory function?
Either:
1) Set that to the length of inBuffer (i.e. 100 in your example)
or
2) Allocate inBuffer that number of characters.

Thank you for your response..But "RtlCopyMemory" is used in driver program.How cam i access the "Length" in user console program?

The same way you are accessing it when you call the RtlCopyMemory function...
Or am I missing something?

When the length is greater than 100 then the operating system hang up..So how can i manage that ?

You need to do some playing, and see what happens. Try declaring your buffer as 32KB and see what happens.
Use the debugger and look at all the parameters when you get to the RtlCopyMemory and see what you have.
Basically, you need more info than you have given us so far!
