As some of you all aware, we just had the Time Change take place here in the USA … in most states anyway.
Lo & behold, this morning the clock on my computer with Windows Vista was FIVE hours off! :o
The minutes were correct, but the hour was exactly 5 hours ahead. What the heck?
I checked and the Time Zone is set to the correct one.
I changed the time manually and it accepted it.
But, when I click on the Button to “Update Now” to synchronize the time with windowstime.com or whatever it is, I get an error. I then even tried one of the other Internet Time sources with which to synchronize my clock, but I get an error there as well.
Any ideas on why the clock on my computer moved ahead 5 hours instead of 1 with the Time Zone setting being correct?
While just about all the Critical Windows Updates are installed on this computer … none of the Optional Windows Updates have been installed yet. I don’t know. Maybe the absence of one of those Optional Updates could have possibly caused the Time Change problem and the failure to synchronize the time with Internet Time.
