Re: [Algorithms] Timing problems

[Robert W. <fo...@ro...>]

Hi Jan, I wondered, is this driver still available by any chance?

I'm trying to access the HPET timer in my software in XP or in later
versions of Windows where it may be enabled in the BIOS but seems it
is disabled by default in the OS.

With the later versions of Windows I could instruct my users to enable 
it in Windows using bcdhedit but the problem with that is that in the online 
forums a few people report performance issues and possibly even freezes with 
it enabled (which may be why the default is for it to be disabled).

In XP there seems to be no way to access it normally.

It looks as if your driver might be a possible solution. But get 404 not found 
when I try to download the zip.

This is for a software metronome.

Thanks,

Robert Walker
