Whats the Time

[Lazarus]

Guys,

Another little issue after upgrading to Windows XP.

My system clock doesnt seem to want to keep the correct time.

Every time I reboot the time is wayyyy off - somethimes up to as much as 12 hours.

Is there a random time generator within XP, or is there somewhere else i need to look ?

You can synchronise with a time server, its under the set Date/Time dialogue.

Ill give that a go and see what happens.

Is the time in your BIOS right too Laz?

I'm having a similar problem with my S41G2 shuttle, the time will get faster and faster upto 2mins a day. I leave the machine on all the time and have got it synching often to keep the time in check.

I've tried re-registering the time service in the command prompt but it doesn't seem to fix it

Would have helped if I had the timezone set to GMT instead of GMT-8
