DST settings

[covanant]

Every time i log on my dst settings update.Is this normal?
Anybody else notice this?
Also seems like i get reply messages in my e-mail before they are posted.

No emails for me but I am getting the DST settings updated a couple times a day..

It didn't happen to me, but I think this should now be fixed. Let me know if it happens again.

[covanant]

Still doing it,on 2 seperate computers also?
E-mail issue ok now.

[Kilroy]

Nothing more I can do here that I know of. I'd be interested in any other reports of this to see if it is rare or common. I have not seen this on 3 computers.

Did you try changing the time zone in your profile and then changing it back?

Dan,

I had this happening when one computer was set for DST and one for Standard time. They would switch back and forth.

[Kilroy]

Sounds like you are saying that his comp must have DST set incorrectly. Our servers and my systems here are all set to the new DST correctly so it must be on his end.

In user control panel,where should my time setting be at?

It set for "auto detect dst settings"

Did your computer change time properly last week or did you have to intervene and set it manually?

[covanant]

I had to set my pc manually,but my laptop switched over fine.

[Kilroy]

Then you need to run the recent updates from MS to fix the one you did manually.

[covanant]

Possable,but my laptop updates the settings as well?
Should i be set on Eastern time?

[Kilroy]

My guess is that when you log in with the one that needs the patch, it pops up, then you set it, and when you login on the laptop, it sees it is not the same and pops up again, and back and forth you go. I'll bet patching your desktop will make it all work properly again.

[Kilroy]

Yes Eastern time is correct.

[covanant]

Thanks Dan.
My laptop updates on its own,im betting because we set the time earlier this year my pc couldnt adjust?It's allways done so before.
I'll try the updates.Microsoft.com i assume?

[Kilroy]

Yes. just run windows update in your start menu or visit the site you mentioned.

Even if you set the clock manually it will be messed up without the DST 2007 patch. I bet your laptop is much newer, or you have auto updates on for it and off for your desktop.

[covanant]

34 updates took almost an hour!!Funny after i re-started my pc,the clock jumped ahead an hour.Logged on the forum on both comps,no pop up
Dan,you da man,thanks.

[Colby]

Lol!

[Kilroy]

There ya go!

Dan, I just logged into chat, the time is still behind there.

[Kilroy]

The server clock is correct. It's just the chat room and I can't change it. I am hoping it self corrects when the old DST date rolls around next weekend.
