Audio without RPC-Service possible?

Sometimes anything is blocking my RPC Service the Footprint in the Memory is then very low and this is good.

Unfortunately is Windows then nearly unable to do anything without RPC.

I'm looking for a method to get the Sound working. I think i have read this on Project Mindows?

It is certainly possible. One way to do it is to create a custom svchost.exe that doesn't link to any rpcrt4.dll functions, since the audio stack (audiosrv.dll) needs svchost.exe to be able to run as a service, and svchost.exe depends on RPCSS. The less realistic way of doing it is to completely redesign the audio stack to run as an EXE file instead of a DLL.

If you don't have any programming skills at all, the simplest solution is to switch to Windows 2000, which has the audio service built into the Win32 subsystem.

It was one of the goals of the project. However, most of the people offering to help with the project only wanted to test, and the few that did want to help in others ways either didn't have the knowledge necessary or were reluctant to re-engineer svchost.
