Verna, You asked that I send suggestions to all that I received re my clock problems. Some of the responses are listed below: For instance, I do know that the Autoprotect program will affect the time on your computer clock. This program, because it is always watching and looking, can cause computer slowdowns at times, which will affect your clock. I know that others more knowledgable than I have told me that these computer clocks are known for keeping lousy time. I have the same deal as you, only it doesn't lose a full hour..... 1. What would cause my clock on the computer to change times for no reason at all? It seems to be just one hour difference but it has happened at least three times in the last few months. The battery on your BIOS may be running out. See a local 16-yr-old to get it replaced. It might just need a new battery I think it runs a large watch type batteries or if you go to computer store they will have them too #1 is most likely caused by the CMOS (or clock) battery on your motherboard dying. It's more an annoyance than anything else, unless it dies completely. It can be fairly complicated figuring out what to do about it (there are different types) unless you have your original documentation. Check out this link from the L.A. Times business section (http://www.latimes.com/business/columns/techqa/20010222/t000016035.html) for more information. Your computer automatically will adjust for Daylight time, usually it will tell it it is doing so on boot up however Hope this information helps you all. Barbara
