You can use this to overcome "sleep" :
// If there are messages in the queue, then do not wait at all,
else, wait
// as little as possible, so as to avoid 100% CPU usage and still
process
// as fast as we possibly can.
MsgWaitForMultipleObjectsEx(0, pHandles, 1, QS_ALLINPUT,
MWMO_ALERTABLE);
Obviously, one has to understand message processing in the first place...
