I tried the NTP server you recommended and I still get an error saying an
error occurred while trying to sync with the server.

I am running XP Pro on a home network with a Linksys router and I have
noticed the time sync feature no longer works. When I try to sync I get a
rather generic message saying that an error occurred. There is no error
listed on the event log and the windows time service is started. I have
tried several NTP servers including time.windows.com. Has something
changed in the last few months? Any suggestions?

Yes that server hasn't been working well from many. Use a different time
server. I'm in the US and use
tick.usno.navy.mil
