Default [Fixed] Clock keeps going back 3 hours

Exactly what the title says.

How do I make it stop? It's very annoying especially when I need to wake up for something and I get to bed 3 hours late because my clock set itself back.

Thanks.

Odd problem, the only thing that comes to mind is that your CMOS battery might be dying, you could possibly look into getting a new one

Could it be a different timezone? Make sure you have the clock set to your location.

I never thought about that. I just checked it and it appears as though I mistook Pacific time for Eastern time.

Wow! Lol.

Thanks!
