I checked and the service was started but set to manual. Reset it to Automatic and reset clock. We'll see what happens jetjock
It may be the reason, but as I said. not the only this. If not Your clock still not work, is possible to continue search. Normally the taskbar clock starts when the computer starts and then should synchronize with the BIOS clock. If the Time service not run, it cannot synchronize and clock may run but shows 00:00.
Have you attempted to run sfc /scannow to see if it'll repair any system files yet? Although Revo is a good program, using it to uninstall software should be your last option. Try re-installing the clock software and then un-install through Programs and Features in the control panel. Often times software will share .dll's with each other and ripping them out with Revo will take out a required .dll file that is being used for something else. What is the name of this clock software that you installed?
Flash BIOS then? If that doesn't work, an upgrade install of Windows would fix any OS related problems.
Have been trying to do that. Flashing an ASUS BIOS almost requires a degree in computer engineering! I'll let you know if I can get it figured out. Thanks. jetjock
Program was called Socket Watch. I'll try a reinstall, but doubt that will help as clock was messup before uninstalling. Only took it out because something in the system clock had caused it to red X and it wouldn't work anymore. jetjock
If your still watching this Joe, I wound up installing an Acronis backup from the week before I noticed a small hiccup on my computer. When it happened, I didn't think much of it as it was so small and happened so quickly. The only outward sign that anything had happened was I noticed my mailbox list in Eudora was changed slightly. I just fixed that and thought no more of the glitch. After trying everything suggested in this thread (except flashing the BIOS, which is always a last resort as far as I'm concerned) I decided to restore back to before the glitch happened. It's been two days now and the machine appears to be working just fine. Don't know what the glitch was, but my Avast & MalwareBytes programs didn't find any malware or virus, and since I wasn't on any Website, I doubt it was caused by either. All is well for now. Thanks to all who tried to help. jetjock
