Little tool to get and set the windows timer values
Little tool to get and set the windows system timer values. It uses the following WinAPI methods to retrieve and set the values:
NtQueryTimerResolution
NtSetTimerResolution
TimeBeginPeriod
TimeEndPeriod
It can also set 0.5 ms as timer resolution.
Verison 3 minimizes to system tray and can be started with command line arguments "-t peroidVal" and "-minimized". e.g. put a .bat file into your autostart with the following code:
C:\PathToTool\TimerTool.exe -t 0.5 -minimized
Or if you want to run it automatically at startup and hide the cmd after execution, update the bat file from above and replace with:
start "" "C:\PathToTool\TimerTool.exe" -t 0.5 -minimized
exit
