Default internal clock

I have a new IBM Netvista machine running Windows XP.
Since I've had the machine every Thursday at 8:00am I
loose three hours on my internal clock. It goes from
7:59am to 5:00am......I then go in and change it to
8:00am and the following Thursday do it again. It's been
going on since January.....every week. Anyone else have
this problem????
Thanks in advance....

Check to see if your computer is in the correct time zone. The default time
zone for Windows is Pacific time.

No need to wait for Thursday; you can check at any time by double-clicking
on the clock in the system tray. You'll see a tab that lets you adjust your
system time to one of several time servers.

In date and time, internet time tab change the server to tock.usno.navy.mil
That will solve your problem.
