Clock

I know I read a thread in Vista forums before about clock issues, but I wasnt able to find it. At least not one with the same problem Im having. So about a week ago I noticed that my clock said seven o'clock when it really was ten o'clock and so I decided I would change it. Now I got back from my four o'clock class and my laptop reads that the time is two o'clock.

What would cause the clock to either stop moving or working properly?

Hi marrypoppins,

it's not a timezone issue is it?

the other thing it could be is the RTC battery on the motherboard. although if its exact hours time shifts I would definitely suspect time zone

Yes you were right it was a time zone change, but I never changed the time zone
Why would it change like that?

The list is long and not very distinguished. (I know its a misquote from top gun :))

Internet time server glitch

best thing is to see if it stays set now that you've set it
