Running XP Home with SP3 and automatic updates. In the UK: time zone
is GMT with 1-hour daylight-saving (British Summer Time). In Date and
Time Properties, Current Time Zone reads "GMT Daylight Time". Time
Zone is set to GMT and Automatically Adjust Clock for Daylight Saving
Changes is set. Automatically Synchronize is set, and the time server
is time.nist.gov.
The clock periodically jumps back 1 hour. It's hard to say exactly
when or how, because I only notice it after it's happened. If I then
manually synchronize with time.nist.gov, the clock returns to correct
British Summer Time.
A Linux installation on the same computer is not affected. Even if I
exit XP with the time incorrect and boot Linux, the time on Linux will
be correct, so the computer clock would appear not to be the cause.
It may be relevant that I recently (during Summer Time) re-installed
XP from a disk image made in January.
Any help appreciated.
