Is your Time Zone set correctly?

Just turn off ONE of the auto update to the time server and use the bios clock then when you set the one the other will merely read the bios and be the same¨

There's also a fix on the Wiki which involves adding a registry to Windows, it worked for me smile.gif

The issue is Windows is the only OS which stores local time in BIOS. Every other OS stores UTC (or GMT). There is an Windows executable called "appletime.exe" which if copied to startup folder in Windows will fix this problem. Editing the registry is a hit and miss thing. Does not always work. Appletime.exe has been posted in these forums many times, just search for it.
