I am so happy to know that I am not the only one that this is
happening to. Started last week but I thought it was the way I was
shutting the power off to the computer because that was the only
thing different when it showed up. I went back to shutting down the
normal way and the problem went away for a few days but when I
started it back up today it was one hour off. That is: Instead of
6:00am it was showing 5:00am. Is this a Y2K bug in daylight savings
time part of the clock? To be honest I don't know if it is hardware
or software. Here is what I have if that helps.
Intel Celeron 366Mhz
S1856 Tomahawk BX /A+ Motherboard
128 Megs Ram
Windows 98
Norton SystemWorks 2000
Thanks,
Gary
