When I was having trouble with my XP system, I could set the time off by a few minutes and then ask it to do a time sync. It would report success, but the time was still a few minutes off. At that point I disabled the time service and installed an NTP program.

I still get occasional notifications and update my OS with latest changes. (Don't know how much longer that will continue.) The time on my system updated OK and is currently correct. I haven't noticed any issues with the DST changeover. I just asked it to do a time synchronization and that completed OK.

So rumors of XP being broken seem to be exaggerated.

If you double left click on the clock; click on the Time Zone tab, there
is a check box for DST update on/off. Since the dates of DST have changed,
it does not work right.

Hi all,

I am a new member, in St Pete, Florida. I noticed that last week, my XP
laptop had not updated at the arrival of summer time and I had to do it
manually.

Cheers.

Jay
