For your interest, this is what NTP reports when running on a VMware player
under Windows 8.1 update 1:
http://www.satsignal.eu/mrtg/performance_web-server.php
Well with +/- 0.5 milliseconds. This is the host PC which is a Windows
stratum-1 server (Sure GPS/PPS synced):
http://www.satsign
That appears to work as well.
Good on ya

I did see some retries going to time.windows.com.
I'd suggest changing to 0.north-america.pool.ntp.org if you live in
North America
It took several seconds to get time form time.windows.com but
0.north-america.pool.ntp.org had no delay.

Now that I think back, I had a couple of XP systems where the system was
configured to get time from the Internet, but the service silently
failed. You could click on the 'update now' button and would be
informed that the update was successful but the time was still wrong.

I just checked. I have an actually running XP system that runs in a
VMWare virtual environment on my iMac. Here is what I see
1) It is set to use an NTP server called "time.windows.com" to set the clock.
2) It is using SNTP not NTP to set the clock

Hi!
At first, Windows XP supports SNTP protocol (so it can be synchronized
with NTP server, but not with "millisecond" grade accuracy) and it uses
time.windows.com as default server. Maybe Microsoft is closed that
server or something, if it doesn't work anymore. However it's easy to
change th

What did Microsoft actually do? Possibly Windows XP was set by default to
use some time servers at Microsoft and those servers were shut down. If so
all you need to do is change the configuration file to use public "Pool"
servers.
But is this what happened? Did Microsoft actually have NTP serve

You don't need an app.
1. Right click on the time display in the task bar.
