Wacky Clock

[Guest]

Hello All,

I have a DELL Desktop, about 6 years old. Everything works great (knock on
wood) except for the clock. The problem started after the 8 day blackout we
had (I live in Astoria, Queens, NY). When we turn on the computer, the clock
is all wacky. When I update it, and check the clock an hour later, the time
is always something different than what it should be. No idea what this
could be.

Check to make certain the Time Zone is also correct.

You may need to replace the CMOS or BIOS battery. These are inexpensive and
easy to replace. See this link for details
