Check your time settings, you probably have internet time sync checked or daylight savings checked.

Check to see if the proper time zone is seleted.

In the future watch what happens after windows updates, I posted a thread a while back because updates always seems to recheck internet sync and daylight savings on my machine, lord knows why and beware tomorrow, there is a major update being published.

That's one of the reasons I Disable Windows Time in Services. One less thing running in the background and one less thing trying to "phone home".

Missed that one. Have you tried Disabling the Windows Time in Services?

Not yet but I am going to, believe it or not sometime today my time zone was moved from Eastern Time to Santiago???
it's quite interesting to switch on this machine (only this one by the way) and see where we are today.
