I have 3 pc's here, but my main pc is ALWAYS falling behind on time.
Anyone know what can be the cause of it?
I just had to sync it since it was 1min 30 secs behind, and this is something i have to do on a weekly basis...

turn on automatic sync with a time server? or perhaps select a different time server in case your pc is having issues connecting to one particular time server in the list?

Well that's the odd thing, i never changed anything with that setting (the sync is on by default).
All 3 pc's have the same windows installation on there and the other 2 have no problem syncing.
So what is causing this one to fuck up then is what i'm wondering.

Do you turn the power off at the wall when it is shutdown? If so, maybe the motherboard battery is needs replacing... Just a guess.

Nope, this pc only reboots if it's really a must, average on time is about 14 days...
Same for my second pc, that one has average 30 days uptime before i reboot.
Laptop tho is the only one that gets shut down quite often, but that one doesn't fail.

Sausje...it's pretty obvious what's going on. Your computer is going so fast...it went back to the future.

Serious though, what's the time on your MB, does that one fall behind as well?

normally windows time service should compensate by syncing
for some reason i can't get mine to sync even if i completely disable the firewall
my windows shows 16:35 but my linux, other windos and my phone show 16:39

tried deleting the service and other servers and shit suggested by people with the same issue
just used this instead;
