• SL500... CLOCK does not keep time

  Nine SL500... whenever the PC is shut down, either by hibernation or actually stop that time is exactly 28 minutes off.  If I change time to be correct, it will remain correct until the next time it is restarted.  What function key must be held down for a boot configuration mode so I can see what's on the actual system clock?  Am running windows XP Pro

  Just press F1 when you turn on your system to get into the BIOS and see your SL500 cmos clock time.

  Hi Dominic

  My apologies for the late reply to thank you.

• System tray clock does not hold time

  I have a laptop DV6 3000 running on Win7-64 Home Entertainment.

  The clock in the system tray is not keeping time. Research Interent showed me the battery on the motherboard, I traded that last night with a new one and it is still wasting time. It seems to stop at that time, I finally used the laptop.

  Any suggestions on what else to try?

  Thank you

  Looks like the new battery worked. Make sure the clock is set correctly in the BIOS before entering windows.

• Clock will not show time. PC running XP.

  I'm having a problem with my clock keeping time. I tried everything, including the suggested "fix" and nothing works. This seems to happen with the computer turned off. I've seen the suggestion about the battery, which I have not tried. There are all the other remedies you can suggest?  Thank you.

  There are a few things that can cause a loss of time (or gain), in Windows. The CMOS battery has been suggested, and you should check the BIOS of your computer to check before replacing, but only after resetting the BIOS by default. But it could be that the Servicde of time Windows is interrupted.

  1. click on Start, click on run. Type cmd , and then click OK.

  2. at the command prompt, type net start w32time and press enter>.

  The time service starts. If it has not been started, test when it is market so it can sync with time.windows.com. If the system maintains time in Windows, it could very well be the CMOS battery. If the computer is connected to a UPS, I remove as well and plug directly into the wall just to test.

• Rocket will not keep time.

  Hello. When I set the time on the "rocket" (4g, v2, 2.03.33a firmware), it stops time tracking when it is off. Is there a separate battery which does not, as a clock battery internal? Thanks in advance. Hope everyone is having a great day.

  (I did a search first and nothing came. Sorry if this is a redundant question).

  Yes, there is. I don't think it's fixable by the user if, so I hope it is still under warranty. If so, you should contact SanDisk directly on a replacement.

• Windows XP will not keep time properly

  I have a desktop running Windows XP and for some reason old any my camputer won't keep accurate time.  I tried to manually as well as the use of internet time options.  I get errors whenever I try to put my time using the internet.  Any ideas?

  * original title - why my computer time is always wrong *.

  If your sudden computer of the time losses when it is off, you may need to replace the battery on your motherboard.

  It would help if your posted error message exact than your receipts when you tried to change the time.  Usually only administrative users can change the time.  As a workaround, to power you can press the button to send your BIOS Setup page and set the time correctly here save/quit from the BIOS screen and I hope that the weather will be good then.

• Computer clock keeps time

  Why my computer clock will not keep the right time?, I have continually put wright through "change date and time" in the control panel.  I have Vista Home Premium

  http://www.howtogeek.com/HOWTO/Windows-Vista/dealing-with-Windows-Vista-time-sync-problems/

  If you have problems with your time while the computer is running normally, read the info on the link above on how synchronize your time for a time, to maintain the correct time server.

  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

  On the other hand, if you set your time properly, turn off your computer, turn it on and the weather has changed to a previous Date/hour/year, there is somethimg else.

  There is a battery of size piece, trickle-feed in your motherboard, which manages the time and settings while your computer is turned off.

  It may run out.

  If that's the problem, it costs about $5 to replace.

• Lenovo Z500 can't keep time (clock drift)

  Hello

  I had real problems with my new Lenovo Z500 on Win8 and the big one at the moment is its inability to keep time. After a reboot, it will keep the time that I stopped him. Then after that it will be adrift. For example, while he was working there, I had a movie on. I checked the time at the end of the film as it must have been was late again according to my laptop that this is only about 30 minutes later.

  This becomes a huge pain. All files have the incorrect date and to have a clock which cannot keep time is next useless.

  On a very old PC I guess that's the CMOS battery on its way, but I only got the laptop a few days! I would probably cancel my warranty replacement anyway.

  Any help would be appreciated.

  Richard

  Do check my laptop about 18 hours after I finally stopped him and that time seems correct. That said, I checked my data and the time settings and synced it on start up. Windows may have cancelled my test!

  I downloaded and installed three drivers. It's the BIOS and positive battery that I believe was the chipset. My memory is a little fuzzy on the third, but the BIOS is more likely to be solved.

  It will stop for a brief moment, just to be sure.

• The BIOS clock does not work after upgrade to Windows 7

  XW4300 workstation has been recently updated to Windows 7 from XP pro.  After the update, the system clock did not keep accurate time, then I entered the BIOS Setup and set the time here.  After several hours, I rebooted, entered the BIOS configuration and noticed clock BIOS had not changed.  I replaced the CMOS (CR2032) battery with three different batteries and BIOS clock does not always change.

  Occasionally, Windows 7 system clock will synchronize to the BIOS clock, which creates the incorrect time in Windows. I can see these events in the system event log.

  Is it possible that this problem is related to the Win 7 upgrade, or is it a problem without a report?  Suggestions to control or fix the BIOS clock beyond what has been done so far?  If I can't fix the BIOS clock, is it possible to prevent the synchronization of the clock in the BIOS Win 7?

  Replace the jumper CLRCMOS or CLRRTC to its original position after erasing the CMOS memory and flashed the BIOS? If you do not then the time will be reset whenever you turn off the PC.

  I have not found a CLRRTC jumper on the 4300.  Is there a jumper to reset the password (E49), and a CMOS reset button.

  However, I tried to reinstall the battery with power supply cable disconnected, and it reset the CMOS all anyway.  Reset the CMOS seems to have solved the problem.  BIOS clock has now begun to follow the exact time again.  I rebooted several times now, and the time is now correctly.

  Thank you all for your suggestions.

• PC clock does not properly

  I have a new PC with Windows 7. The clock is not keeping correct time if I adjust manually or via the internet.

  More often than otherwise, this is related to the battery CMOS be bad.  It is easy to replace and relatively inexpensive.  If another does not solve the problem it is probably something on the motherboard.

• clock will not stay at the right time

  I keep changing my clock to the correct time manually and with internet synchronization, but it continues to change, so there is an unsolved problem.  Any ideas on how I can fix this problem.  It prevents my emails and the time stamp is incorrect in outgoing messages.

  Remember - this is a public forum so never post private information such as numbers of mail or telephone!

  Ideas:

  • You have problems with programs
  • Error messages
  • Recent changes to your computer
  • What you have already tried to solve the problem

  If time is lost when the computer is off, it's probably the battery on the motherboard that needs to be replaced.

• TV in Windows Media Center program guide lost and can not keep GMT on clock

  Original title: lost the TV Program Guide in Windows Media Center (clock on PC can not also follow GMT... dunno if they are connected)

  Have lost the TV Program Guide in Windows Media Center (clock on PC can not also follow GMT... dunno if they are connected). Have messed around with all the settings, but can't seem to recover these items.

  Hi Liljools,

  1. When did you start to question?

  2. you remember to make changes to the computer before this problem?

  3. When was the last time that the clock was followed by time?

  4. have you tried to change the settings of the clock to GMT?

  Step 1:

  Try to configure the guide once more and check if it helps. The configuration guide, follow these steps:

  a. on the start screen, navigate to tasks, click settings, click TV, click Guide, and then click Set Up Guide listings.

  b. follow the instructions on the screen to configure the list of Guide for your region.

  c. If you are prompted to select a provider of TV services, and you do not know which one to select, control a recent draft Bill or statement from your TV service provider to find the appropriate information.

  d. the providers listed in Windows Media Center vary according to the Postal Code or ZIP. If the supplier subscribe is not listed for the ZIP or the Postal Code entered, try entering local codes find the appropriate Guide listings.

  Step 2:

  You can also manually download the latest Guide information and check.

  a. on the screen start, navigate to tasks, click settings, click TV, click Guide, and then get latest Guide listings.

  (b) when you are prompted, select Yes to start to download Guide listings. You are notified when the update of the Guide is complete. You can continue to use Windows Media Center and the Guide while new Guide information is being downloaded.

  If the problem persists, you can try to configure the TV signal in Media center and check if it works very well.
