If you have set Win XP to the wrong time zone, your computer will display the "wrong" local timeDouble click on the time (bottom RH corner of your screen) and select the Time Zone tab. Select the correct time zone for your location and check the DST box. If necessary, change the time manually to your local time and save your changes.Then, select the Internet Time tab - and make sure you have a server in the server field. I use time-a.nist.gov. There are many alternative servers including time.nist.gov and time.windows.com. Click on "Update now".
