    GetTickCount



    I'm writing a program that needs very accurate timing. After numerous tries, I finally decided to use the api call "GetTickCount", so I could calculate the ticks per secound and go from there. I noticed the average count always ended up being 1000 (almost exactly). What is the tick count based on? And will this always be true?

    You may want to look into QueryPerformanceCounter and QueryPerformanceFrequency for high resolution timming.
