BIOS time on HP nc6220
I'd like to adjust the system clock in BIOS on my HP Compaq nc6220.
I press F10 at boot, but there is no menu where I can change/adjust
date and time.
Does anyone know if there is a "secret" way to access the system clock
settings on these laptops?
I have read the system documentation and Googled a lot, but still
haven't found the solution.
The actual problem is that the system clock is 7 minutes ahead, and I'd
like to correct it premanently rather that being dependant on the Win
XP internet time synchronization feature.

Unfortunately some HP models have bios with no time/date
Afetr a system board change and using safeboot encryption, the system won't boot as the encryption software see's the bios date (can be years out of date)
perhaps using a linux live cd will do the trick - else use windows manual time set (untick internet time update/synch) - You'd better double check your watch first lol

I believe Windows corrects the bios time. If it is still gaining after you
correct it in Windows then it is a problem with the motherboard time keeping
and changing it in bios will not solve the problem.
