I can't answer that question, but I can guess.

In Windoze 3.1, you might be out of luck.

In SE and above, join the time-nuts email group and ask there. Email 
to time-nuts-request at febo.com and put a 'subscribe' in the subject 
line (without the quotes). The time-nuts deal with ALL things related 
to time, and GPS time is a hot topic although many want GPS and a 
rubidium standard running 24/7 for more extreme degrees of accuracy.

My compliments on finding the Oncores for such a cheap price!!!! I 
thought I did well to find the 4 dollar modules!

I should also say that if you just want 10 to 15 milliseconds of 
accuracy, you can use WWV and put the 10 MHz audio right into the 
soundcard....which is accurate enough for many. Your mileage may vary::>
