Where I can find timer with high priority? Normal timer doesn't always send the message and I want accurate time!
 
Try MMTools... I found it quite accurate.
I have used in several situations that required 1ms resolution, and it has worked adequately.
 
The DXTimer coming with DelphiX also seems to work fine. The strange thing with the ordinary timer is that it works faster at 'too' short repeat times (for example for animating a 3D object) when you move the mouse around. I've seen this behavior some other places too (the MSIE4 programmer names easter egg), does anyone know why? (I'm curious)
And where can i get MMtools?
