Question Posted Friday February 27 2009, 7:37 pm

Hi I always have to set the time on my computer when i sign on. Its always a few minutes behind. Well ive noticed lately that each time i turn off and on my computer the time gets slower and slower behind. Sometimes up to an hour behind. Is there a way i can fix this. I know computer who keep up with the time and not have to fix it everytime they sign on. Does anybody know how to fix this? Thanks alot!

-Ashley

First of all, if you're going to ask questions like this for god's sake give us some information. What kind of computer is it. What operating system does it run? How old it is?

Seeing as you seem to be accessing the internet on it, there is probably a setting in control panels, system preferences (or whatever your Operating System calls that part of itself) to set the clock according to a time server. If you enabled use of a time-server, the clock would check itself against a reliable internet server every few hours, and correct itself if it was wrong.
