I had to 'fool' my time zone in order to work.

Try changing the DST check box and if you time does not change then your
system does not think you are on DST.
You may need to change the time zone that your computer thinks it is in
order to make it match up with your Guide.

Try this

Download and install the DST update -
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=66F1420C-DF2D-400B-A8A9-EF9061A9A3CA
Close MCE
Change the timezone to something that is obviously incorrect and accept
the
changes (hit ok)
Change the timezone back to the proper setting (make sure adjust for
daylight savings is checked if it applies to you) and accept the changes.
Reboot
Open MCE and run through the Program Guide Setup again (Settings, TV,
Guide,
Set up EPG)

Hopefully that fixes the problem for you. If it doesn't, let us know.

Have you done what was suggested for the OP? Checked the
time/date
setting
to insure the correct zone is set and the DST setting is
correct?

I'm having the same problem. EST I was on the phone with
Cable
Company,
DEll
and Vista and noone could help. Did you fix your problem?

MCE 2005 Program Guide is one hour ahead.

I have reconfigured Media Center Guide, but that didn't
help.

Any suggestions?

Thanks





Fixed! Although my PC displayed the correct Pacific time, I did
not
have the "automatic adjust for daylight savings time" box checked.
Checking that box fixed the problem.

Thanks.

Fixed! Putting a check mark in the adjust for daylight savings time
did
the
trick.

Tha;nks a lot. M4568
