Further to Martin's most helpful comments, you can see how well Windows 
performs as an NTP server here:

and as a stratum-1 server here:

There's quite a lot of difference over the versions, with Windows 8/8.1 
having the potential to be the best performer as it has a more precise get 
system time function.

For the convenience of Windows users who can't or prefer not to compile 
their own versions (although the tools are free and available), I keep a few 
recent executables here:

Just stop the NTPD service, copy the executables, and restart the service.

Cheers,
David
