Can the LabVIEW run-time environment host PC run a structure with millisecond accuracy??

Basically, I am running into SCTL errors, so I am trying to offload as much of the processing as possible to the host.  I have an idea that I can move a case structure that controls some less critical timing to the host and simply have the FPGA module act as a conduit (i.e. use the same DIO ports as some of the more critical time functions implemented on the FPGA target)...  These less critical timing functions need to be accurate to 9 milliseconds or better (i.e. I change a logic level and hold that state for 9 milliseconds).  Is this something I can do on the host??  Please let me know... Thanks!

What is the host? If it is a Windows based PC, you are not likely to get an accuracy of 9 milliseconds.  While a Windows PC has a theoretical resolution of a millisecond, you'll often find errors on the order of 10's of milliseconds.
