ok so the clock on my computer is slow, sometimes it runs fine, but usually it runs slow, it updates fine, but then it starts slowing down again. why does it do this?

i had a real clock do that once. it was the most annoying thing ever.

That happens to my comp clock too.
I just chalk it up to when my comp freezes up and stuff. It's never too off, maybe a couple few minutes.

no its not like that, its a few hours off, if i open the clock on the bottem right of the screen and look at the big clock with the hands and stuff, the second hand sicks and stutters, at eh moment i am an hour behind and i reset it somtime aroiund 1:00 this afternoon :9:

Pretty much the same reason, I'd bet... There's a watch-battery-lookin' thing on your motherboard which is probably run down, so when you turn off your computer, it doesn't keep the clock up-to-date. My aunt had this problem on a Mac, but I assume it's the same issue.

When Jack gets here he will tell you to reformat.

I thought crack was saying his cock was slow
I am now left disappointed

Plasticman is right. You need to replace your motherboard battery. 99.9% of the motherboards in windows pc's use the CR2032 battery.

I always had this problem on my computer at work. The clock on the wall was always correct but the time on the computer was maybe 10 minutes behind. I would always argue with my boss about which time was correct. It ended with me telling him it was a bug in the windows program. He bought it!

No comment on the itelligence of your boss... :11:
Crack...first your water (clockwise) runs funny and now the clock??? Who did you piss off?? :35:

the answer to the real clock thingy is those clocks get tehir timing from the power lines which have a 60hz frequency which makes 60 ticks a scond for a clock so therefore that gives it 1 minute...somtimes your power is slitghtly off and it fucks w/ the clock times....not a big problem but if you wnat a fix get an electrition to check out the power in your house or appartment
- PlasticMan - 07-30-2003
Ah no. Clock has nothing to do with your power lines, or you'd have to reset it every time you unplug your computer (which you don't).
Next.
