Slow clock?

Slow clock?

I am used to autosync my clock with a ntp server on the internet but I found out that my clock is ALWAYS behind. This morning (10am?) I did sync it and when i tried it again a few mins ago it went frmo 00:00:14 to 00:00:57
I know its not that big but its in a day!
Am I the only one with this weird problem?
The only thing I could think of is SpeedswitchXP, which throttles tje CPU back on DC power rn not letting it go back up again (unless you configure it that way)...

Oxi, try synching with the militry clock in the US, seems to be spot on.

synching is not the problem. Its just the clock on my notebook runs faster then the atomic clock on that server.

Oxi,

Are you bothered about this? Time sync'ing servers are there for exactly this reason. Mine just updates itself in the background.

I know, my notebook is always connected to the internet when I am at home, but not outside that.. Therefor there is an internal clock :slight_smile:
