Guest Fan924 Posted May 3, 2008 Posted May 3, 2008 Using Win98SE. Every few days I find my clock is a half hour slow. Exactly a half hour. It is not running slow, it is being reset somehow. ???????????

Is it possible that you have set your clock to the wrong time zone and that you have a program that automatically synchronises your clock to an Internet time server? - Franc Zabkar -- Please remove one 'i' from my address when replying by email.
