Wrong, calculating the number of cycles per millisecond is easy:
int64 timethen = GetMachineCycleCount();
Sleep(1);
int64 timenow = GetMachineCycleCount();
int64 one_millisecond = timenow - timethen;
float one_nanosecond =  (float)((float)one_millisecond / (float)1000); // It's gonna be 1 cycle for 1 GHz
