Hi!

(You might even check > for RDTSCP if available.) Thanks for the suggestions, I modified TSCDOS according to them. But I did not integrate RDTSCP support, because I cannot see it useful in a single tasking environment like DOS.(code is only executed on bootstrap processor). Serializing is handled by cpuid. Anyway the codes are free to modify or improve, so If it was not clear my offer included this permission too :). I think you are much more experienced than me so I would be glad if you would improve the code.
