As much as I'd like to explain the big picture in list, it would make God
awful noise - if you wish to know any details, I encourage you to respond

The question I think that is being asked is ...
What does precise mean to you?
To the nearest order of magnitude, what kind of accuracy are you looking for
on your three signals. This defines the kind of system you will need.
This group normally aspires to the more accurate end of the
Graham,
I think that is the real challenge here: most folks don't know what
precise means for them. Timing is such a novel technology that most folks are
amazed that we are trying to get parts per trillion (or better) accuracy and
stability!
We get customers all the time that want very

What where you thinking? :)
But I agree fully with your point, people don't understand how their
poorly speced requirements translate into cost and design-time.
Accurate time to the fs for no budget is what you can
As some of you no doubt know microshaft has stopped supporting windows XP.
As part of this they have ceased to correct windows XP clocks. This seams
rather small of them as it can't possibly be any inconvenience to them to
continue to provide this service.

Have you looked into NTP for Windows?

I use nmeatime, you can set from the net or from a gps plugged in to the
computer.
Have used it on all my computers for many moons.

You don't need an app.
1. Right click on the time display in the task bar.
2. Select 'Adjust Date/Time'.
3. Click on the 'Internet Time' tab.
4. Type in any server you want. I suggest 'us.pool.ntp.org'. This
gives you access to a pool of servers so that if one is down or wrong,
the next one
This is what I was looking for. On this computer I only need accuracy
within a few seconds. Thank you to all who suggested alternatives.

Max,
In the Control Panel, click on Date Time. In the date Time Properties
window, click the Internet Time tab. Make sure the Automatically
synchronize with an Internet time server box is checked.
In the Server: box, copy the following server name and paste it into the
Server box:
What did Microsoft actually do? Possibly Windows XP was set by default to
use some time servers at Microsoft and those servers were shut down. If so
all you need to do is change the configuration file to use public Pool
servers.
But is this what happened? Did Microsoft actually have NTP
Hi Max
You do not want to have your XP box connected to the internet at all.
This is not something that can be dealt with by any anti-virus software you
are running.
There are parts of XP that can be exploited by an outside hacker. Software
can be installed and run on your system without your

Hi Max - try Dimension 4, www.thinkman.com/dimension4/ In a large number of

Graham,
Yeah, I suppose I'm not aspiring to the most precise of the measurements, I
want something that'll give me a reasonable accuracy on a budget.
Inside the RaspberryPi is a free running 1MHz oscillator - if I could train
it with a 1PPS to a good degree of accuracy (say 10ns to 100ns or so)
Said, good measure! Put it into dollars!
This helps! Let me have a think about my budget...

Hi John
Both applications are excellent choices. Malwarebytes also offers a great
free system scanner that will detect rooted malware (this is the stuff that
runs without your knowing it is there). It has to be run manually but it is
excellent.
There is a lot going on behind the scenes besides

Neither one is going to break the bank, but I found the Westclox Model 72006
