A common theme among most software testing organizations is their escalating interest in Test Automation. Automation is defined by Wikipedia as a wide range of technologies that reduce human involvement in processes. Let’s look at the definition of quality to see how test automation isn’t quality assurance.

An example of a specification is the correct operation of the hardware of a microprocessor. An SDC is the worst possible outcome of a fault, as it can have an arbitrary impact on the correctness of software running on the hardware. Therefore, testing alone is unlikely to be the definitive solution to address these new faults.

The short version is that calls to timeBeginPeriod from one process now affect other processes less than they used to, but there is still an effect. The answer is hardware interrupts. Let’s imagine that Process A is sitting in a loop calling Sleep(1). Then Process B comes along and calls timeBeginPeriod(2).
