Try this:
1. Start the *Registry Editor*
2. Go to *HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ SYSTEM \ CurrentControlSet \ Services
\ W32Time \ TimeProviders \ NtpClient \*
3. Double-click the *SpecialPollInterval* value, and change the Base
of the *Value data* to *Decimal*
4. Now change the *Value data* to the time interval you desire,
noting that the time is given in seconds (so for 1 day the value
would be *86400*, while the default (7 days) is *604800*
5. Close the registry editor
I set my Windows 7 interval at 3600 (1 hour).
Warning - as my son the IT specialist says of Registry modifications
"Danger - There Be Dragons". Back up the Registry before proceeding and
if you are skittish about such surgery, don't do it.
