I don't know if it'e because I have a terrible connection to the internet, I mean my download speeds never exceed 1 Mb, and yes, I do mean Mb not MB, but Mb. - I just noted this because the clock is meant to be in sync with the server, anyway, when I boot my PC, sometimes it'll say a time that can be about 12 hours off.
But if I manually go into the settings and manually change it, it's fine, but when I try to sync it with the server, the clock is totally wrong. *I'm running Windows 10 if that's of any use. *
Any help? How can I fix this issue? - I know it's not a huge deal, but just seeing it appear as 20:00 when it's 08:00 just bugs me!
Hi mate, A simple fix is to create a scheduled task. I could type it out here but easier if you follow this link: http://www.pretentiousname.com/timesync/ step, by step process. Sometimes even things like running a linux distro off a usb can for whatever reason throw off the time with the silicon gods. Scheduled tasks are pretty cool for other things as well once you know the process. Best of luck.
I had a similar issue recently with a Windows 7 system. I would set the time, re-boot, and then the time would be wrong again. I ended up upgrading the system to Windows 10 which resolved the issue. Have you tried changing the time zone? opposed to just just the time/date.
I was actually wondering if that's the case as my motherboard does short out on start up sometimes, basically, when I was building my PC, I was too dull to think about static, but at the time I was a newbie to the whole computer scene, luckily I've learnt a lot now, and I feel much more confident in what I'm doing, in general.
Would that possibly solve it then? - I've just changed it to : time.nist.gov I'll have to check myself once I'm able to reboot, but the really annoying fact is that I can't reboot right now, downloading the Visual Studio Community package, and with my < 1Mb/s download speed, it's going to be a while....
I have made sure that I am in the correct time zone, and if you mean cracks as in modified software, I don't use anything like that, I either pay for my software or I just use free software or open source software.
I was thinking the same thing, although I am aware I do have a faulty motherboard, simply due to the fact that it sometimes fails to boot, and as I've mentioned before, I was a newbie to computers when I built my PC.
I wasn't all that aware of how fragile the components actually are, specifically talking about static electricity. Obviously I wouldn't just hit my components or something really stupid, but you get my point, I wasn't aware of what to do and what not to do, I also wasn't that aware of how dust can be a huge issue for some people, since owning my PC, there's only a VERY thin layer of dust on my components, nothing that would cause for a thermal build up, luckily.
