As most of you are aware, daylight savings time begins earlier this year, the second Sunday in March, March 11th. This change may makes it necessary for all computer users to update their systems before the time change takes effect.
Here's what you need to know:
Microsoft has created a web page at www.microsoft.com/DST2007 to help its users keep up with the DST change. It includes links to patches for Windows XP, Vista, Outlook and Windows Mobile.
Users of older systems, Windows 95, Windows 98, and the Millennium Edition, need to disable automatic switching and spring forward by hand as follows:
1. Click the Start button; click Control Panel.
2. Double-click Date/Time in the Control Panel.
3. In the Date/Time Window, click the Time Zone tab.
4. If checked, click to clear the "Automatically adjust clock for
daylight-savings changes" box.
5. Click the Date/Time tab and manually adjust the system time to the correct day and time. Click OK to finish.
6. Repeat twice a year, prior to the second Sunday in March and on the first Sunday in November.
Hopefully, this will keep ya alls computer in sync with real time on Sunday, March 11, 2007. Good luck.
