I have uploaded: SimTel/msdos/c/ pctime10.zip GCC/MSC srcs for millisecond resolution timing PCTIMER is a high-resolution timing routine in the form of C functions. You can compile and link PCTIMER to your programs in which millisecond (or even higher) accuracy timing is required. PCTIMER is designed to provide a timing routine with millisecond resolution. You can also modify it to get higher resolutions. PCTIMER sets new parameters to the 8254 IC to get high frequencies of SYSTEM TIMER Interrupt (INT8). To maintain the PC's stability, PCTIMER intercepts the INT8, only calls the original INT8 at the frequency of 18.2 times per second. Consequently, high-resolution timing and system stability are simultaneously achieved. If millisecond precision in unnecessary to you, you can also set PCTIMER to do centisecond timing. All functions are written in C codes. There are no assembly codes at all. Requirement: IBM-AT compatible PC. The GCC version requires 32-bit PCs because GCC is a 32-bit compiler. FreeWare.
