If you have XP, you can use the automatically synchronise with an "Internet Time Server" option by clicking on the Internet Time tab.

If you use Windows XP, set it up so it synchronises the clock when you're online. If not, then there are programs out there to do the job. Try Thinkman Dimension 4.

... and for everyone else just look up your OS and Network Time Protocol in your favourite search engine.

Mine's running 10 mins fast.
I can't alter the time, the little arrows are 'greyed out'.

Where do I get it altered, please?

CGG, click Start - Run - type cmd - OK.

In the black window that's just opened enter:

time

It shows the current time and prompts for the new time.

All sorted! Thanks Chippy_Minton!
