Your question is not terribly clear...so I will guess.

 

If your machine does not hold your date settings

after being off for a while, it's probably due to a dead CMOS battery

You can manually edit the time entries by just double clicking on the clock

on the task-bar usually located at the bottom of the screen. If your time

continues to be off it could be due to a dead CMOS battery as philo mentioned

or due to conflicts from another time setting program on your machine or even

due to malware on your machine. Gary S. Terhune also has a program for

updating the time clock for Windows 98 Second Edition with the new daylight

savings time.

Start - run - command /k time

 

or

 

Start - run - command /k date

 

or, if in DOS just

 

time

 

or

 

date

 

....or use the little digital clock thingy that might be visible

down there in the right corner.

synchronise time automatically with windows time server.

Re: how to repair windows Date/Time settings?

 

But there never was any Windows Time Server in existance so how is

that gonna happen?

 

What most people do is use some app that synchs your computer's time

with a genuine time server.

 

See

"Set Your Windows Clock Automatically" at this page:

http://www.billsway.com/vbspage/

 

It's less hassle than a genuine app but it still works fine.
