I use serial port to communicate with external hardware.
My application has to receive a byte every 60 millisecond and send repley
before the next byte arrives.
But the application isn't notified quickly enough abut arriving byte. The delay could even be half a second although the thread has the highest possible priority. This happens especially while any other disk operations are performed. I use standard functions to send and receive data and I run it under
windows NT.
Does anybody know how to enforce operationg system (I think here the problem is here)to
notify application immediatelly about serial port events.

Thanks in advance
