I recently installed Windows 7 and now have been bedeviled by an incredibly annoying problem with the clock. It is always going back a few hours. Sometimes one, sometimes two, sometimes three. It just changed randomly from 2:29 AM to 11:29 AM. I had to go into the settings to change it to the proper time.
What can I do about this? Or should I just adjust my life’s schedule to conform to the computer’s schizophrenic clock?
Is it only the hour that always changes, but the minute is always correct? If so, make sure your time zone is set correctly. Your computer automatically synchronizes itself with a network time server, which operates in UTC. Your computer needs to know your time zone to translate that correctly to your local time. As long as the computer has Internet access, you shouldn’t need to manually adjust the time yourself.
