I running Windows 2003 Server Standard Edition.
The time on the clock keeps getting out of tune. Everyday I have to manually input the correct time. I also have to change to the correct time zone. Does anybody know a fix for this? Thanks in advance..
 
Assiming you have all MS updates and what not, I would at this point assume the bios battery on your server's motherboard is about to bite the bullet - that's bound to get ugly.

There are utilities out there to keep your server's time "in sync" with the rest of the world but if the issue is the battery, any utility will only keep your server above water for so long before the batt goes.
 
I belive we havent done any updates in a while. We never restart that server. But I remeber a couple of months ago we restarted to get some updates and still the problem is there. Ill will try to restart sometime this week see if that helps.
