Re: Windows XP time keep changing after reboot

Can you be more specific? As I stated, the timezone is set correctly (In the
Date and Time Properties)

Hi there,

We have 90 classroom computers, half of them just had their image updated
using Ghost. The updated computers are having an issue with the clock
being
set back 3 hours before local time every time a reboot occurs. When you
log
in you can actually see the time update it's self in about 15 to 30 sec.
If
you set the clock and reboot, you are back to incorrect settings for about
30
sec before it syncs with the DC. This is giving us errors saying it can't
find the machine account, the clock on the client and server machines are
skewed.

The main issue is that "Deepfreeze" doesn't let go of its maintenance
period
until 3 hours after it is due out, leading to unusable classroom
computers.

* Bios clock displays the correct time.
* Windows xp (with all updates) has the correct time zone and it is being
synced with the DC.
* A fresh base image install reports correct time, so it isn't a battery
issue
* HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\W32Time\Parameters
has the type set to NT5DS

I'm not sure where else to look, what is setting the clock back 3 hours
before local time? Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks
Quinton
