Researchers here are looking for some facility to measure time with 1 ms. 
or less accuracy on an AT or 386 machine. We currently with our software 
(in Turbo Pascal) can't get any better than about 3 ms. accuracy. I have heard
that there was an article written in a recent tech magazine describing a way
someone has gotten the required accuracy. I know this is vague, but does anyone
know where this is written up, or have a more direct answer? Thanks for your
help. It could save me a lot of library work.
