Is Windows Update Time Server screwed up?

[itsrobert]

I'm trying to udate the Time for my laptop and it's putting me an hour ahead of the correct Pacific time. Anyone having the same problem. Looks like Microsoft didn't factor in the "no change" to Daylight Savings time this weekend.

1. Have you gotten the updated patch for the new time change?

ON EDIT: Daylight savings time change was a couple of weeks ago.

2. Yes, a couple weeks ago

My time was set correctly.

But this morning I'm an hour ahead. And I have the latest update patch form Microsoft.

3. I don't know what to say

I have Windows Vista, my time is correct. :shrug:

[itsrobert]

4. I'll figure it out

I don't think it's Windows. It might be my router time.

5. WOW!

Sorry, I couldn't resist. :rofl:

:hi:

[William769]

6. Thats funny.

And yes, Windows Vista is still wowing me! :hi:

7. I had the opposite problem; my manual time change

never took (with Windows XP) and now it appears to be OK.

9. Me too.

I keep changing it back and it keeps launching itself forward.

8. Are you by any chance choosing Tijuana instead of US time?

One of the features of the patch is that Baja California Norte did not go on DST at the same time as Alta California. Look carefully at the Time Zones map and drop-down list. I live in San Diego and got burned on several machines by that one.

Darn Messicans don't obey the will of Congress.

select adjust date/time

click time zone tab

change the setting on the checkbox "automatically adjust clock for DST changes"

11. It still does it wrong. Something's up. nt

[Crabby Appleton]

13. doesn't sound like you have the patch to fix from MS

[Tesha]

12. XP here is correct (Patched up to date, FYI) (NT)

[Tesha]

15. And so is Win/2K (same provisos) (NT)

14. Check your time zone.

As another poster mentioned, your computer may be set to the wrong time zone. Right click on your clock in the lower right corner, then click on Adjust Date/Time. When the dialog comes up, click on the Time Zones tab, and you should be able to select your correct time zone.

Assuming your system has been patched so its up to date, and you have the correct time zone, your computer should automatically set itself to the correct time.
