One way I know is go to Start\Control Panel double click Date and Time,
select Internet Time tab and type in the name of the new time server.
(Example: tock.usno.navy.mil). Then click apply. There may be a registry
edit that you can make, but I have no ideal where it would be located. Some
one else smarter than I may know where.

I believe you can enter only 3 time servers. When I add the 4th server, it
deletes one of the other servers. Hope this helps.

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\DateTime\Servers

Hmm. . . I have 5 entries showing in my drop-down box, but I added them
in Regedit rather than typing them in directly.

Hope this helps :-)

Thank you Nightowl. Making the entries in Regedit rather than typing them
directly does make a difference in how many shows up in the drop down box.
I now have 4 showing in my drop-down.
