Daniel, from my experiences with NT.... no, it seems it is not capable of
hard realtime. The OS is so undeterministic, interrupt latencies (depending
on app) vary from anywhere between 100us to 1ms. I had a problem trying to
handle a 1ms hard timed resolution process under NT. While testing, I found
that NT only maintained about 75% stability with the process.... from time
to time it liked to wonder off a few milliseconds doing who knows what!!
However, I know you can purchase RT extentions for NT ($$$$$).
So far, I am having remarkable success with RTLinux... and the stability of
RTL is immaculate for what I am doing with it.
