System time keeps going back 1 day

I have a Windows 2000 server (it's not on a domain) whose system clock
periodically goes back by one day. It's started happening more
frequently, and is becoming a real problem.
We have a freeware program that's supposed to synchronize it with one
of the online time servers on a daily basis, but it won't let you
control what time of day it does it, and it doesn't do it early enough
in the day to avoid problems with some scheduled processes that we
have.
I tried turning on the Windows Time service, but it gives an error
saying the time is more than 12 hours out of sync and won't adjust it.
I tried putting a new setting in the registry to increase the amount
of time out of sync it will allow, from information at microsoft.com,
but it didn't work.
I tried a couple other freeware programs that will allow you to sync
the time automatically as often as you want (I was going to set it to
5 minutes), but they only change the time, and not the date.
Is there anything else I can try? I wish I knew what was causing it!
Thanks,
Trevor
