This has really been pissing me off for at least 3 months. I noticed that vista time was wrong so i sync'd' it to the correct time from the windows server. A day later it started to lag again (always slower) so i sync'd with the server again. It kept doing it so i thought if it's always syncing it may be the server or the time it takes to do it or something.

I set it no longer to sync and i manually set it to the correct time. It still does this (/me is almost smashing my mouse).  How can i fix this so it keeps the correct time?

Thanks.

Replace the cmos battery.

The battery is like 2$...so if it works then hooray...if not you have a new battery and you can look for a new solution

My laptops only a year old i shouldn't be buying new CMOS batterys.

It's better than flashing the CMOS... or having to buy a new board

It's under warranty so i'l the the battery for free. All i need to do is wait 3 months.

I suppose while you wait you can find a program which syncs the time everytime you boot your laptop....

If i open up the back i void my warranty. If i don't my laptop time is fucked. If i get it "safely" repaired i have to sent it in and wait 3 months.

I'm stuck....
