PC time clock behind?

[Demon_Skeith]

I noticed today that my PC time clock is 1-2 minutes behind two of my house's atomic clocks which one is new. Mine is internet sync to times.windows.com.


anybody know a better place to sync to?

I use the .gov time server, I think they are found for the times.windows.com drop down menu.

which gov? I got time.nist.gov, time-nw.nist.gov,time-a.nist.gov and time-b.nist.gov.

time.nist.gov

thanks, that got it on time.

I wonder what time server does times.windows.com uses, or does MS just tell an employee to look at his watch which is 2 minutes behind to set the time for times.windows.com .

hard to say, but I think the atomic clocks in my house go by the gov time as well.
