- I've put up with it long enough.. now I need an answer. I
- have been using Borland's Turbo C v2.0 for years now, and
- have problems with the delay() function. The delay function
- should be machine speed independent (put 1 ms in, get 1 ms
- of delay). It works OK as long as the turbo switch is not
- pressed on 486 machines. Once you press the turbo switch,
- all bets are off. At that point, it's very dependent on
- clock speed. Are there any patches that fix this? Borland
- doesn't seem to want to offer free support on this product
- and I don't see anything on their FTP site. Are there other
- workarounds?
-
- Thanks!
