What time is it?

Post by Garry Russell »

Something odd with my PC

It has happened before :worried:

The time is 17:59 (The correct time) but the PC says 16:07

It was fine before and it will auto update later...I hope

But why should it do this...The laptop has the correct time and the net book...just the PC??? :dunno:

Its probably the time that you don't remember, while you were abducted by aliens and experimented on.

Hi Garry, either something wrong with its time source (if its connected to the internet) it should be syncing from time.windows.com. If its set to anything else then something funny going on (unless someone has changed the time source for you?) or the battery on the motherboard is buggered and its loosing its time when powered off. Is it Windows 7?

HI Ben :hello:

It's XP, I went out and both the laptop and PC were left on Standby

When this happened before the time corrected itself later with the auto update
