Whats up!
Also it seams to me that this site clock is a little off --About 15 minutes fast to me...............?~Mike ~~~ Forum Rules

You are actually about 15 minutes slow. The server is actually revolving about the Earth's axis more quickly that you are, so it seems to you that it's clock is faster.

Oh...sorry...meant to say something about that...obviously my mind isn't where I'd like it right now...but anyways. I don't have a clue about the clock changing around...that's wierd. Next time it does that, check your system time via a terminal with the "date" command and see if it's the system time that's screwed up or just KDE.

ok the date command gave the same wrong info as the KDE panel.............also it happened this time when i restarted. It picked up the time from when i last shut down linux and switched to windows (The Windows time and date remains correct throughout).

Ok ck'd the bios and it was off the same as KDE --wrong,but win had the correct time (probably internet set).
Ok i set the bios clock to correct time and booted linux , when KDE came up the clock was 1hr.slow--restart ,ck bios clock it was 3hr 33min fast!.....?????????? booted linux it was 15min slow.:banghead:

I wouldn't think that it would be the CMOS battery unless none of your BIOS settings are staying set when your restart. Check that before worrying about the battery.
