Is the clock bouncing between two hour times while the minute stays more or less correct? If so, then Gentoo is probably setting the hardware clock to UTC (universal time, or Greenwich Mean Time) when it shuts down, and Windoze is expecting local time on bootup... They may be messing with each other?? Dave -- [email protected] mailing list
