All 32/64 bit versions of Windows have the ability to sync to "Internet
Time." However, they only sync once a week and do not retry in the
event of failure or if the computer is off, sleeping or hibernating
when it is time to sync. Changing the frequency of synchronization
requires registry editing and is not recommended of users who do not
understand the risks.
