Why don't you use TimGetTicks(). It returns the systemTicks. It's
accurate to 1/100th of a second. Just read it in when you start timing.
Make a functions that is called in the eventloop that checks wether the
time is there to do the action you want. start all over.
It's possible to read signals from the processor but the application
won't, most likely, work when there comes a new OS version or device on
the market.
