Hey Guys,
Well, I'm having a problem. I noticed my clock was incorrect yesterday. It was very off, like an hour, so I synced it, and kept my eye on it. After some time I realize it was wrong again. I left it to be dealt with today.
Today it has been happening so often that the clock is practically worthless.
I went over to Radio Shack and bought a new CMOS battery even though my motherboard is only a year old, but that didn't fix anything. Since I was annoyed I left the Windows Clock settings open on a monitor and watched it. Something caught my eye and I looked at it. It went back exactly 20 minutes. I'm not sure if the seconds were 100% accurate to 20 minutes, but it sure seems like it was. Since then, I have not seem it go out of sync again, but it's only been 45 minutes.
My 3 anti virus programs are all showing me clean. I did install some new RAM sticks and the FireMV the other day, and there were no Windows updates yesterday. The problem seemed to happen the day after adding the new hardware, I don't think they're related. I am not having any other problems, and this system never gives me problems. It's run 24/7 for work, and kept up pretty well.
Any ideas?
Thanks!
