1 hour behind

Post by smurfcorpse »

I updated to 3.1.6. 59351. I have an OS/2 and a Win 2k VM and both clocks are 1 hour behind. If I change them they change back in a few seconds. Is there a setting I'm missing?

Changing the time zones for each OS will give me the correct time. Is that the procedure for those two Operating Systems? Do I have to do this every time I move from standard to daylight savings time?

I had similar issue with WinXP through Boot Camp. I used to have SP2 and whenever I tried to synchronize with windows.time.com it gave me error. Installing SP3 solved my problem. Though, I am not sure if it was SP2 related issue or not. Just wanted to share my experience. Hope it helps..

My OS/2 VM became an hour off when I checked it this week. I know OS/2 does not have any daylight savings ability so this must be coming from VB. I had to adjust the time setting to give me the correct the time. My system clock is correct. I had to set my win2K to 1 time zone closer to GMT and un-check the auto adj for daylight saving.
