Just upgraded a Dell XT2 to Windows 7 Professional. Everything is working fine the only problem we are having is that it keeps changing the time. It goes out of sync from the actual time by about 5+ hours & is generally random at what time of the day it does this. The tablet is docked at work & taken home to be used on a wireless network. The time loss happens when its docked/undocked on the LAN at work and used at home on a wireless network. I have checked the BIOS time & everything is correct & its holding this. We never had this problem when the laptop ran XP & Vista its just started to happen after the W7 upgrade.
Hi, thanks for the quick reply. The symptoms dont sound exactly like what I am experiencing but I will look at the BIOS to see if them settings are there.
