Hi all,

I am trying to get a callback every 20 milliseconds out of a Ttimer. On 
the O'Scope, I only see about a 55msec minimum.

It is an old machine, P5-133, win 95, BCB 5.0.

Is this a hardware fundamental limit, or would changing the OS to Win 98 
help?

Any help would be appreciated,
Charlie Kupelian
