Noticed some timed events were off, and first thought it was just 2 hours ahead.
Then I noticed it was on April 23, 2019.
So just under 5 months ahead.
XP pro on dedicated device, always runs offline.
I've seen them drift sometimes and need to be corrected, but never in many years of experience have I seen such a large error suddenly appear.
Last reboot was early Sept.
0% chance anyone else would have do this, it's in a locked room.
Anyone else ever have XP clock get that far out of whack?
Quoting: Lost Pottawatomie I'd say your CMOS battery is beginning to die, OP. Just replace it with a new battery and the internal clock issue should resolve itself. Especially once you reprogram it's clock back to whatever is your time. Yep! That's the most probable cause.
