Date & Time - unable to change

[Guest]

Hi folks,

I work as IT support team, but one of our staff got a what i think is a
glitch. It's a IBM laptop (can't remember which type) has XP SP 2.

The problem was we can't change the time. Whenever, we open up the adjust
Date/Time the AM and PM are visible on top of each other. When we choose PM,
it just stays AM.

Much appreciated guys.

It's probably not a glitch but your own policy. What happens
when you start a Command Prompt and type this command?

time 19:15

If you get an error message about the user lacking a certain
privilege, have a look at the PC's policy settings (gpedit.msc).
