Hi,
I'm experiencing a problem with my computer's clock (both in the bios and in
windows xp).
The clocks just stops when the laptop is completely diconnected from the
power (with no battery).
The clock starts running again from the point where it stopped after I plug
the laptop.
I think it started from the change from legal to solar time, but i'm not
sure about this.
The computer is a HP pavilion dv6000 laptop, with amd turion 64 x2
processor, bought in january 2007.
Can anyone help me please?
Thanks!

This is a hardware issue, having nothing to do with the time change you
made. Either the motherboard battery is bad or the charger on the
motherboard is bad. In any case, since this is a laptop you will need to
contact HP's tech support for repair/replacement. Since this is a newish
machine, it will still be under warranty.

What is "Legal" or "Solar" time? I've never heard of those. Are they
anywhere near "breakfast" or "lunch" time?
