    The clock/time on the bottom right of the taskbar is never correct. I made sure that it's set at the correct time zone, but it's never accurate. I've tried synchronizing and it works, but I'll have to manually set the date and time correct all the time and it's really frustrating. For instance, now I'll have to set the time and date correctly..then after a few hours, the time will change for no apparent reason. I've asked sony about the problem, but they said as of now windows hasn't created a solution for this yet? This has been happening even before daylight saving. Also, on my Dell Desktop..not sony laptop, the time has been an hour slower. I tried updating it from the microsoft site, but it doesn't work? Help, please on both issues? Thanks.

    I'm in US and I turned off auto- DayLight savings time update.

    My 98SE desktop had a time problem several months ago. It would gain time irrationally. In a few days it would just go 50-60 minutes ahead. It's on 24/ 7.

    Somewhere there had to be a piece of s/w that was causing it. (don't know) . Things have been pretty good for a while now.
