Try turning off the power management settings in both CMOS and in 95/98.

Let us know.

Got about 10% of my users who are loosing time on there taskbar clocks and its got me stumped? The bios time is right on and when you reboot AFTER checking the time in the bios,the task bar time is corrected,BUT will start loosing time again??All the boxes are 2 years old at most and some are brand new?
Is this a 95/98 bug? Anyone know of a fix or offical docs/links?? Thanks in advance, the boss is starting to heat me up on this and I'm going no-where.......hpince@hdri.com

Thanks Nathan for the tip,...switched off all the power management in a box and am waiting to see if the clock still looses time. I'll let you know by post and email

THANKS AGAIN, hpince@hdri.com

Man, you're not alone. That same exact thing happened to both of my home systems too, and unfortunately it just spontaneously resolved on both of them, so I never figured it out. I did turn off Power Management on one of them, and it still didn't fix itself for a few days. Maybe this was an April Fools joke by MS?

Make sure your server time is correct.. because u can use net timer.. to sync all workstations to one specific time..
