Workstations as well as our Server running Windows 2000 Server keep changing the time back 1 hour. I have unchecked the box to change the time for Daylight savings time. I have had to change my computers time 3 times this morning back to the correct time. Anyone else with this problem?
 
Make sure the 2k server's CMOS/BIOS clock has the right time as well. If they are, then try Control Panel > Date and Time,

Under Time Zone tab:
Disable/uncheck Automatically Adjust Clock for Daylight Savings Change
and
Under Internet Time tab:
Disable/uncheck Automatically Synchronize with an Internet Time Server.

If you have already then try this - Following posted in the web:

"just copy & paste in Notepad and save as XPTimeServers.reg, then merge it.



[REG FILE]

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00


[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionDateTimeServers]

@="4"

"1"="ntp.nasa.gov"

"2"="time-nw.nist.gov"

"3"="timelord.uregina.ca"

"4"="time.twc.weather.com"


[/REG FILE]"

============================
Hope this helps.
