What happens to your clocks when you boot to DOS instead of Windows? It would help isolate your clock problem if we could eliminate one or two areas first. Guess: Could your system be working with an unusual daylight saving time adjustment? (At 1:12 this seems doubtful.) The Shift-Click stuff. Try this: In explorer, click View and select Customize folder. You'll get a chance to remove customization -- try it. If this doesn't work, click View and select Folder Options, and work through your choices here. Look for suspicious stuff like 'custom' selected instead of 'vanilla' choices. Go through the View tab and make sure you're comfortable with the way the boxes are checked. Note anything unusual or you don't understand and post a follow-up question. Your questions fall beyond my ability, but since no others have answered you yet, I thought I'd pass along a couple of things to try anyway. Perhaps later today or tomorrow the guys in the know will be back and we'll all learn something new. Cheers, PW.

I'm using a Gateway 3150 PC, Windows 98 and my clock reverts to 1 hour and twelve minutes fast (ahead of real time) every time I boot up no matter what time I set it for before I Shut down You need to enter the system setup and reset the clock. This is the internal clock of the computer. What you have been changing is a dos based clock program that gets it's time reset from the internal clock every time you reboot. Could you rephrase what shift click means and end of series?
