If you've got windows xp, go into the control panel, and choose the date and time choice. this is a dialog with 2 tabs, and you need the second tab, the one for timezone. so, just press control tab to move yourself to the second tab. in here just keep pressing the tab key until you find the timezone list box, and see if it is set to something other than Eastern time, U.S./Canada (which is what you need). I think you'll find it's Pacific time, and so pressing up arrow 3 times should take you to eastern time. press ok and you should be set. It's a slightly different choice in the control panel if you're using vista, and I can't remember for certain what it is, you'll just need to check under "date", and if it's not there, under "time", until you find it. hth, Chip ------------------------------ Chip Orange Database Administrator Florida Public Service Commission Chip.Orange@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx (850) 413-6314 (Any opinions expressed are solely those of the author and do not necessarily reflect those of the Florida Public Service Commission.) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ From: tabi-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:tabi-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of K4NKZ Jim Sent: Friday, June 26, 2009 7:50 PM To: tabi@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [tabi] need some help with time settings hi everybody, something strange is happening! my computer will say the time is: 4:49pm, but the email I sent out will say that I sent it out 3 to 5 hours later! why is that? and how can I fix it? ------------------ from the guy that knows nothing about everything,and everything about nothing K4NKZ Jim Ardin email: k4nkz@xxxxxxxxxxx
