This machine dual boots Mint 17 x64 and Win 7 SP1 x64.
I have set the hardware clock to UTC.
Mint 17 and Win 7 run on local time.
I need reasonable time sync for WSJTX < 1 second.
On Mint 17 ntp from the repo works well with offsets in the low
tens of milliseconds, sometimes < 10ms.
On Win 7 I have installed ntp-4.2.6p5 at spider-man-2-win32-setup.exe.
This does not seem to work properly.
The jitter and offset 'diverge'...

These are not the worst offsets I've seen; 3 seconds is not unusual.
Restarting the service 'fixes' it for a few minutes, then it all begins to
'diverge' again.
Using the default ntp.conf except for "pool uk.pool.ntp.org iburst".
What have I missed?
