Windows Time Synchronization Accuracy

The built-in Windows (7.8) NTP service (w32tm) works with a timer with a precision of -6 (15.625ms per tick):

w32tm /query /status
Leap Indicator: 0(no ​​warning)
Stratum: 4 (secondary reference - syncd by (S)NTP)
Precision: -6 (15.625ms per tick)
Root Delay: 0.0379944s
Root Dispersion: 0.0659944s
ReferenceId: 0xC0A70062 (source IP: [...])
Last Successful Sync Time: 01/07/2013 19:55:01
Source: [...],0x9
Poll Interval: 8 (256s)


Naturally, this greatly limits the possible accuracy of time synchronization. The computer is not in the domain - the network is home.

Is there a way to improve precision to at least synchronize with an NTP server on the local network with millisecond accuracy?

If I look at the time offset in Windows from an NTP server with which synchronization is taking place via the NTP protocol, I see wild numbers of 7-15ms with delay<=0.2ms.

Maybe the original NTP port from ntp.org under Windows
