It will tell you the reason why if failed. -
You can add more time servers if you wish.
This means you do not need to rely on those two.
All you have to do is to type the following (in order) and save it to desktop as a registry addition.
INSTRUCTIONS
1.Type (in order) in NotePad
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\DateTime\Servers]
@="a"
"a"="x.x.x.x"
2.And save it as "time.reg" on your desktop
where,
"a" is the number you wish to allocate your server to.
Currently, "1" is reserved for "time.windows.com" and "2" is reserved for "time.nist.gov"
That means, you can specify from "3" onwards.
"x.x.x.x" is the IP address of the time server you wish to add.
----------------------------------------------------------------
For convenience sake, I have written the code out so you can copy and paste.
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\DateTime\Servers]
@="3"
"3"="208.184.49.9"
I don't know why, but there should not be a ";" in the code. Can the mods see to this?
There are more time servers IP on this site to choose from.
http://tf.nist.gov/service/time-servers.html
------------------------------------------------------------------
To increase the frequency of time sychronization updates, use this code.
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\W32Time\TimeProviders\NtpClient]
"SpecialPollInterval"=dword:00015180
To make it faster, decrease the value of the dword. To slow down, increase the value of the dword.
Note that you should NOT set dword to too low (below 10000), or the server may misinterpret your computer as launching a denial-of-service attack, and ban you from using it.
Cheers. -
Please ensure you type properly before executing.
The code should not have a ";" -
The registry one complicated.I just copy paste and save as notepad paste to where?
-
desktop
-
So i paste then how do i open or retrieve it ?
-
You have to save the filename as "time.reg"
After that, simply double click the icon will do. -
-
So ok got this additional server 208.184.49.9 correct?Whose IP is this?

I still don't understand why the heck you guys needs to synchronize with time servers.
Not on a network, not in US, not in UK, not in places where there is DST, do all these for?
I'm connected to none and my time is right. -

OK. Anyway, time.windows.com server is always or nearly dead. No point synchronizing with it...Originally posted by Conner MacDermott:Synchronization is easier mah.. -
why my computer clock run slower and slower?
-
As with watches, digital clocks work the same way. Once in a while need to adjust a bit. They are not atomic clocks.

It is dead.
I tried reconnecting for like 100+ times before I decided to post the code. -
Not funny.Originally posted by MyPillowTalks:why my computer clock run slower and slower?
That code will shorten your frequency of the synchronization only.
Normally, it is one week. But, the code will give you daily synchronising. -
mayi why my com clock run slower? motherboard no batterY?

Then, you better buy a new computer. Too long to write the cure.
