Computer Clock

[Legend]

I've just looked at the time on my computer, bottom right hand corner and it's 10 minutes behind. Anyone know how i can change that?

Double click it:thumbs:

Oh yeah ha ha. Cheers Chrizzle.

Unlike Mac's MS-Windows doesn't adjust it clock on startup but it can be done. If you know what you are doing you could configure an authoritative time server in windows.

A easier method for people using Windows XP can be found here:

when mine was wrong, I double clicked it and changed it, but it kept on changing back, so I had to go into BIOS and change it there. It only takes a minute and now it's spot-on. :thumbs:

Everytime I turned mine off at night, the next day I would turn it on and it would say "00:36". It got REALLY annoying.

Did u change it in BIOS?

[MarkWaldorf]

No, it just stopped doing it...Lol

The CMOS BIOS battery might be flat. Try leaving your computer on for a while to re-charge it thought it might be completely flat and need replaced.
