You couldn't even if you wanted. High res timer requeres at least one of the faster pentiums (not all pentiums can do it). If you can't get a stable latency in the end, it might be worthwhile to upgrade to a pentium, but for now I'd keep trying some finetuning.

I have a 133 Mhz AMD 486 - whether setting the resolution timer up would be very good for performance I don't know. - Thilo Schulz
