How do you set the windows system time to the CMOS real time clock without rebooting the computer. All the APIs only work the other way around. The windows system and local time can loose seconds after a few hours (confirmed by Microsoft) but the CMOS time stays OK so that when you reboot the computer they both come good.
Any ideas?
