    You can just adjust it in the bios. When your machine boots up, it'll say "press F4 to enter setup" or something similar. If you've already done that, and it keeps lagging, then yer system battery needs changing.

    1.21 gigawatts = 14 minutes


    and how doc brown in charge of the servers would create a 14 minute discrepancy


    :D

    Is that why I missed Vic tickets?!? Haha. Good thing Santos follows real time when posting things, instead of future time.

    no.once upon a time, the clock was accurate. :eek: shocking i know, but it was! then it was off 1-3 minutes...tops 5. it's only been off 14 minutes this past year. and THAT is outta hand imho. :p


    and travelar...it's only the board clock, not pearljam.com. i think the goods site is fairly accurate. there is no clock on the site to check, but things do seem to go onsale within at least a minute of when they are supposed to. it's just HERE! right now it's 10:37...but my post will appear to be made 14 minutes in the future....

    Maybe there's a reason that we can't imagine for this?

    (Like someone doesn't know how to re-set the damn thing?)
