is it possible to have Timeclass with Microsecond accuracy in windows?

From SYSTEMTIME struct i could get only millisecond resolution. How can we achieve microsecond resolution?

Short answer: No. Windoze is not a real-time operating system. It is not deterministic, meaning that it may stop paying attention to you any time it wants in favor of screen updates, OS housekeeping, reporting your personal habits back to MS (aka the MotherShip 8^), etc.

For uSec timing accuracy you'll need a dedicated, real-time hardware/software system.
