System Clock Unsynchronized

[moon4707]

My Event Viewer is warning me that my system clock is unsynchronized. The
Event Source is W32Time. How can I correct this problem.

Thank you.

That happens occasionally on my machine too... and the machine is
rarely off by more than a few seconds a month when I check it with a
third-party program.

Don't worry about it unless your time really varies from what you know
is correct.

Change to a different time server?

Thanks, PD43. Your response was quite a relief. I was really concerned about
it.

Thanks for your response, HeyBub. Changing to a different server might work,
but how do I do that?

Go here to get an easy to use manual "updater" to check your system
clock.
