Anyone Else's Computer Clock not right? - Flumper Barflusterbutt - 03-12-2007

Mine didn't adjust for daylight savings time.

Right clicked it, hit "adjust time", had it do a synchoronization with time.windows.com and it comes back with the same bad information.

wtf?

Your computer will set to the correct time on April 1st. If you don't want to wait you can manually reset it yourself, however your computer will still reset on April 1st and you'll have to correct it again, then.

(thanks go to Leo La Port's radio show. He says yer welcome.)

Click your heels together two times, close your eyes and wish really hard for the time change.

Ja, but then he has to do it again in three weeks when the computer thinks daylight savings time begins. Silly Europeans.

Yeah, no way am I going to learn how to click that clock 2 times and figure out how to change the time and then in three weeks have to relearn all of those steps again. I'm a friggin road contractor not some pocket protector nasa nerd. I'll just remember to add an hour until it all gets worked out. Fuck that.
