Here is what the Windows7's event log says. The last restart w/
4.2.7.p98 was started at 3:51. (It is not giving a good sync). Earlier
than that I had an error in specifying minpoll=maxpoll=32, but i fixed
that and i do see "poll" value of 32.

Thanks, Gautam. The entries look completely normal (compared to a Windows
Vista system I have), and in particular, the correct choice of
interpolation scheme is being made (I left those entries above). What I
am /not/ seeing is any entries by NTP saying that NTP is stepping the
time.
No, I don't expect Win-7 SP1 to make any difference. I would check again
for any power-saving stuff. I would also suggest installing on another
Win-7 PC to convince yourself that NTP does work, and to have a base to
compare against.
Cheers,
David
