Default Re: OT: System Clock Loses Hour

I'll try setting it an hour ahead, but I have my doubts...

Somewhere in the menu brought up by double-clicking on the system clock is a simple checkbox for synchronizing the clock through the internet. Either uncheck this box or change your time zone setting.


As I said in the OP, I have already tried every combination of those settings, and the system can no longer synchronize with Internet time... This is not an issue of how to use the system, it is a bug that has cropped up for which I am trying to find a solution. Also, that isn't really a solution anyways, because it will only perform the sync once a week. Even when the box was still able to do that sync, the clock would still get set back an hour, about an hour later. I wrote a little script a week ago to manually perform the sync (w32tm /resync) once an hour, which worked to fix the clock, but the time service is no longer able to sync even manually on the command prompt.
