timer, delay, sleep function, in need fo accuracy
Bert, hrmm are you talking about the Speaker Timer? and making that work? But isn't the speaker timer only connected to the speaker and such.. One Idea on how to stop interrupts was brought up by Michael Abrash when I read about his Zen Timer for timing optimized code fragments. He stops all... -
Sleep, Time delay, Zen Timer?..in need of time accuracy to 1 ms
Thanks Keith, I'm going to try the Multimedia Timer built into windows..but I'm not sure even it can handle < 10 ms delays. I'll give it a try! John,Yep, I know the function calls take up quite some time. The _outp function though, takes only 1/200,000 of a second(call and return), I timed it... -
Timer, sleep delay - speed/precision needed
Should Run as a windows console application since I'll be compiling in Visual C++ 6.0. So I'd say Windows Dos Box- marvg007

Timer, sleep delay - speed/precision needed
Hi, first off, to know why I need precise accuracy in this function, down to the exact millisecond is because I am trying to produce a frequency through my parallel port. I timed the call and return of the _outp()(function to write to the port in VSC++6.0) to be around 1/200,000th of a second. I...- marvg007

timer, delay, sleep function, in need fo accuracy
Hi, I'm a C++ programmer and don't know much about assembly(though I'd like to learn in the near future). I'm writing on this forum since I need of a time delay optimized function..accurate to nearly the millisecond(Zen Timer is accurate to the microsecond I think).first off, to know why I need... -
Sleep, Time delay, Zen Timer?..in need of time accuracy to 1 ms
Hi, first off, to know why I need precise accuracy in this function, down to the exact millisecond is because I am trying to produce a frequency through my parallel port. Sending frequencies through the port would allow me to make multiple channels in which a robot can communicate with the...
