Google Throttlestop. I use it to keep my microprocessor from idling back, but it allows full manipulation of the system reference. The only caveat is not to go wild overclocking, as this will cause havoc. I know from experience!! :-)

( NOT sync clock time to network time )

I recently added a second drive on my PC and installed Windows 8in a dual boot configuration with Win XP. On Win8, Windows 8 Clock time looses about 3 minutes and 49 seconds per day ( 2650 ppm ). Booted on Windows XP, with the same MB, the Clock time lost is less than 5 seconds per day. I remember three years ago when I initially set up XP, I used some sort of utility to adjust the internal time reference, but can not find it now.

On Windows 8, using digital modes with VAC, I encountered as significant drift in the latency through VAC. So I set up a test (using CHUtime ticks ) where I could measure the latency differential between the FLex5000 RCA Line out and PSDR VAC output routed through VAC, a VAC audio repeater and a USB sound card channel. In six measurement runs of six minutes each, the average change in latency differential was 161 milliseconds per minute ( 2670 ppm ). The Win 8, tests included runs with two different versions of PSDR, three different versions of VAC and heavily used CPU vs. lightly loaded CPU. Repeating the same test, booted on Windows XP, there was no easily observable VAC latency drift.
----
Both the Windows 8 Clock time and the VAClatency drift have the same (~2660 ppm error ), which I assume is because they are driven from the same interruptsource.

----
I can and do use a utility to sync the clock time to network time, but that does nothing for the VAC latency drift.

Does anyone know of a utility to adjust the internal time reference on a PC?
