Daylight Saving Time in 2007

Is anyone aware how to change the settings for Daylight Saving Time starting in 2007. In 2007 the DST will be starting on the 2nd Sunday of March and revert to Standard Time on 1st Sunday in April.

How can I make this change in my Windows XP Professional, SP1 ?

Thanks....

Subhash.

Put a BIG yellow stickie on your monitor to remind you to manually reset it

Or wait a bit and see if MS comes out with an update

You need to upgrade to SP2 - M$ is no longer supporting SP1.

I think you are mistaken. In 2007, it will begin on March 11th, and end on November 4th. There is no way that it would start in March only to end a month later.

I'm sure that MS will include some kind of an update. Besides, via windows, most computers synchornize their internal clocks by connecting to a time server. I'm sure that worst comes to worst, it'll be adjusted that way.

I am sorry, my booboo. I meant "First Sunday in November" and not in "April". I think I didn't get enough sleep in spite of the extra hour we got today.

Thanks.
