Ok ive not managed to find any thing that will get my version of HiRes to function on Windows, or locate any specific Windows modules. however I have found a nice bit of code that I can use directly with Tk, that will run an interval check for me which until I rewrite using POE::Wheel will do me fine. 
#start thread
$thr = threads->new(\&sub1);
#setup timer to process in 500ms intervals
$mw->repeat(500 => \&update_display);
MainLoop();

sub update_display{
    print "Running from Mainloop\n";
     $mw->update;
}

sub sub1{
        while (1){
          print "Running From thread\n";
          sleep(1);
        }
}

Thanks for all the help
