Hello,
I thought I give this newsgroup a try since you guys seem to know so much
about all this stuff :D.
Windows has a high performance counter api.
With this api one can read the tick frequency and the tick count.
Dividing the tick count by the tick frequency gives the time that has past

The documention of TP says: zero is for 8086, one is for 80286, and
two is
for 80386.
A 286 is in fact a 32 bit cpu... limited to 32 mb ram.
No, the 286 is a 1
I pulled in 1.9.3 from CVS yesterday. When I recompiled some code I have
been working on I found my program crashed when creating a socket. The
program fails with no error. It just exits. I created a test program
with just the socket call and it also fails the same way. Here is the
code:
