Internet Time

[Terry]

I would like my windows XP box to sync it's time automaticaly. On my other
XP machines always had a internet time tab on the Date and Time Dialog box
(Control Panel>Date and Time) but this box does not have that tab. Is there
a way to install that tab / force it to show? I have service pack 3, so I
don't think I am missing any features.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Terry

Hi Terry,

Click Start, Run, type services.msc and click OK. Check to see if
Windows Time is started and Startup Type is set to Automatic.

Also, if you're on a domain, it's not needed either.

Re: Internet Time

Is your XP in a domain? The tab disappears if you're in a domain.
