Timing Microseconds

I know what the clock() function does. It works fine, but in a certain case I need to time things in 'us' rather than 'ms'. Is there anyway I can do this? Without being able to do this, it will be harder to keep my program reading a WAV in half-way decent sync (without accessing the sound card).

Uhh..that's what the sound card is for. The faster you can go is getting the tick-count. (GetTickCount())

The highest resolution you can get is the sampling frequency of the WAV file (44.1 KHz, Normally for stereo, I think.). Some sound cards have higher sampling rate (up to 192 KHz), but what is the WAV stored as. What are you trying to sync? As the WAV is sampled at intervals it is self clocked.
Summary: No point as there is nothing to be gained. The real time clock hardware in a PC only has a resolution of 150 microseconds so a time of 607 microseconds is only going to be accurate to +_ 75 microsec...
