I have noticed that on my computer, I have to have tijuana/baja california time up to have the correct time for my area, and the timezone for my area is in west coast time. Whats going on?

First set it to your time zone, then just adjust the clock time.

A side note for those who may be having the same problem, windows has a few sites you can update the time with, if one site doesnt work try them all.
