Ok, here's my debuglog, where it shows that the division is the problem. The value returned by QueryPerformanceCounter() is changing but the result of the division remains the same frame after frame.

I'm none too clear why BMax is returning inaccurate results here, nor how to fix it. Doesn't make any sense. I'm using Return Double(Time)/Frequency, just as Redi does.
