Time change
« on: March 09, 2008, 03:26:19 PM »
The time changed last night.  I just checked the time on my computer clock and it went ahead 2 hours.  Did anyone else have this problem?  Can someone tell me how to correct it?  Win XP SP2.  Thanks

Right click on the taskbar, or where the time is shown, from the menu choose Adjust Date/Time, you will see Date Time Properties windows, now adjust your time there and click Apply then OK.

That should do the work.

If it happens again after some time, then I'd suggest you replace your CMOS battery, or better yet... let someone who is more technically savvy do that for you. Searching these forums under CMOS terms will give you few results on how to do that and what is CMOS battery. Just one of them:
