Nikita Posted October 12, 2006 Share Posted October 12, 2006 I have two OS. First - Windows XP and the socon MAC OS X . When I boot in MAC OS X the time is correctly displayed. But when I reboot to Win XP the time became wrong. I don't remember but time lag behind about 2 hours. How can I fix this. PS: Sorry for my bad english.

Rammjet Posted October 12, 2006 Share Posted October 12, 2006 OSX and Windows store time differently in BIOS. OSX stores time as UTC (GMT) and then adjusts it with an adder to the local time. Windows stores local time. So they will always be at odds with one another. To get around this, there are 3 ways: 1) Get an app that sets the time off the internet 2) There is a batch script that can be run at startup to reset the time 3) There is a registry key that can be set, but this is an unsupported register and MS may change its behavior at any time, so this is not recommended. This link takes you to two other links which discuss 2) and 3) http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?sho...mp;#entry123785 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nikita Posted October 12, 2006 Author Share Posted October 12, 2006 I decided to use the second way. Thank for links and fast reply. It works for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
