    Several months ago my SYSTEM CLOCK began losing 2 hours, no more no less.
    I replaced the CMOS battery, reset the CMOS and the clock still loses 2 hours, no more no less.
    Within 3 hours after replacing the CMOS battery and reseting the CMOS the clock loses 2 hours, no more no less.
    Anyone have any ideas as to why this occurs and how to fix it?

    Do you have your clock set for the correct Time Zone

    If it's not the Network time or the time zone selection then maybe a good bios update will fix it.

    That's only if it's listed as a fix in the BIOS change log which the problem would have been there from day one. It's something else. Updating a BIOS should only be done for a specific reason, like when I upgraded my single core chip to an X2.

    BTW Booger, are you dual booting as I noticed this behaviour when Vista was still a beta. It would reset my EST to PST. This is just a shot in the dark.
