Presario 7360 - slow clock
Preasrio 7360, running Win98SE, loses time. I have replaced the CMOS
battery, scanned with AdAware, SpyBot and run anti-virus. Diagnostics finds nothing wrong. The PC operates just fine but the slow clock is a concern. Is this an indication that the PC is dying? Any suggestions? |

The Real Time Clock is not very accurate. On the other hand loosing hours a day is not normal. If you need to be very accurate there are tools around to access time servers.
