On second thought, I figured some clarification might be in order there.

I was thinking the same thing, Alan. How those headers are showing
UTC -1600 remains a mystery to me.

Re: Posting In The Future?

I'm using Dimension 4 (D4) too, but I don't have that same problem. (If
IT is throwing your clock off by 9 hours, that sounds pretty weird).

Re: Posting In The Future?

I installed a program called Dimension 4, but then it threw off my system
clock by 9 hours. Instead of it showing 8 pm my clock showed 11 am. So I
deleted the program.

When I change my time zone, this is one registry key that is affected:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\TimeZoneInformation

The "ActiveTimeBias" and "Bias" parameters appear to hold the UTC
offset.

For example, these are the values of the affected parameters for my
time zone (GMT +1000).

"ActiveTimeBias"=hex:a8,fd,ff,ff
"StandardName"="AUS Eastern Standard Time"
"DaylightName"="AUS Eastern Daylight Time"
"Bias"=hex:a8,fd,ff,ff

The bias value of 0xfffffda8 is equal to -600 decimal. This appears to
be the UTC offset in minutes.

I wonder if Dimension 4 changed this registry key:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\TimeZoneInformation

What values do you have for the following paramaters:

"ActiveTimeBias"
"StandardName"
"DaylightName"
"Bias"

I'm wondering if the "ActiveTimeBias" has been incorrectly set to "C0
03 00 00" (ie +960 minutes).

If so, then you might like to try changing your time zone to some
other, apply the change, and then change back to your preferred time
zone. Maybe this procedure will reset the above parameters, assuming
they are broken. If the numbers are still wrong, then you could
manually edit them, or look for damage in some other registry key.

Re: Posting In The Future?

The data in that CurrentControlSet key derives from the appropriate sub-key
in HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Time Zones\<your time
zone>. (In NT systems, it's \Windows NT\ instead of \Windows\.) The data is
written when you Apply a new Time Zone. The first thing to do if you suspect
corruption of that key is to choose a different time zone, apply it, and
then reset to the desired TZ. If the corruption is still there, then the
info in the above key is the problem.

I have a download that replaces the entire TZ key with current settings, up
to date -- except for Pakistan's, where they recently changed the law
without much warning. I still don't know what their new law(s) prescribe for
Standard and Daylight times. I need to find out and update the file. This
article is the jumping off point:
http://www.grystmill.com/articles/tz_update.htm

Note that you may want to take the file apart and inspect the REG files.
Running the EXE includes a script that uses the SendKeys method, so keep
your hands off the keyboard and just watch the show unless prompted. If the
script stalls or does not execute at all (lots of possible reasons), don't
worry. Just Merge the appropriate REG file and then change the TZ in the
Time/Date applet, apply, and then change it back.

Which means your clock should read UTC -7. Because we're still on Daylight
time. See my reply to Franc, at 2:27 Pacific Daylight Time, for a fix. Or
just go to my site and follow the trail.

my answers are embedded below. these are both with D4 installed and

Yes! It is 960. What should it be?
 
Re: Posting In The Future?

I'm in UTC-8. D4 puts my system clock in UTC+8 even though the Time/Date
taskbar still shows me in the Pacific Daylight Time zone.

I also see that the tech who built this computer is already using TZ Edit.
How would I turn this off or delete it?

Gary is probably the best person to advise you, but I believe the
ActiveTimeBias should be set to 480 or 420.

Did Gary's TZ updater utility restore the correct the data at the
following key?

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Time
Zones\Pacific

FWIW, my registry, with the original Microsoft TZ data, shows ...

"Display"="(GMT-08:00) Pacific Time (US & Canada); Tijuana"
"Dlt"="Pacific Daylight Time"
"Std"="Pacific Standard Time"
"MapID"="32,33"
"TZI"=hex:e0,01,00,00,00,00,00,00,c4,ff,ff,ff,00,00,0a,00,00,00,05,00,02,00,00,\
00,00,00,00,00,00,00,04,00,00,00,01,00,02,00,00,00,00,00,00,00

As you can see, the BIAS is 0x000001e0 (=480 minutes).

Looks fine to me. But it bothers me that using my update file didn't fix the
issue immediately, or didn't you try it without D4 in the mix? Without D4
being involved, the updater should have fixed the issue and I'd be very
interested to know if that wasn't the case. I don't know of any mechanism in
Win98 that would change that Registry key or its sub-keys.

Turns out that the most recent update to the TZ info in WinXP and above was
released a month ago.
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/951072/

I'll be updating my files tomorrow, Sunday, but don't be surprised if it's
Monday or even Tuesday before I upload everything. The very first and only
monitor I ever bought for myself was a ViewSonic A75s, a CRT with "short
depth" dimensions. Spent the better part of its life powered up and serving
as my primary monitor. More recently it's been attached to whatever machine
happens to need it, usually my test machine. Well, when I cranked it up this
morning it started doing a snap, crackle, pop like it wanted to reincarnate
as an arc welder, so I've got to drag a used monitor out of the shed
tomorrow. Kinda sad, actually. that monitor had great color. IIRC, there's
not much left in the shed that will work decently enough, or be "short"
enough to fit on my desk. Gotta see if any of my "clients" have any flat
panels that need to be "recycled". Might have to buy a new one. That's
revolting.

Re: Posting In The Future?

Bill, I'm going to ask the tech at work who gave me this computer what he
thinks is going on. I mean, if the BIOS system clock is OK, and the Windows
taskbar clock matches my watch, why would D4 synch me up with the newsgroup
but throw off the Windows clock by 9 hrs? This is one of 2 mysteries with
this computer that I need to solve.

It may be due to Gary's program, Bias is now 0x000001e0 (480). What did
change is that ActiveTimeBias which is now 0x000001a4 (420). The change came
out by futzing around with Gary's program, TZEDIT, and then D4. If the
headers are still wrong, I'm throwing in the towel. Actually, I'll keep it
for a beach towel and head for the Southern California beaches, smack dab in
the PDT UTC-7, and where the only headers you see are on muscle cars and
surfer dudes wiping out on the big waves. Ciao!
