First of all: check your requirements. If the given one about 1ms is necessary, then you need external hardware to ensure this. Cause Windows does not guarantees real-time capabilities.

Then: When I take a look at the specs of that device, why do you need that small time interval at all? It has an internal sample buffer.
This question needs an answer!
