What's the time?

I have Vista on a Medion pc which has several "gadgets"available on a side bar one of which is a clock.Lately more often than not the time is way out,this isn't critical,but I just wondered what could be the cause,Correcting it is no problem but it only goes astray again.Any ideas please??? codswallop (Sat 16:00 04/Jul/09)

ACtheTROLL		(Sat 17:24 04/Jul/09) clocks on 'puters have always been rubbish but at least one of the default windows time servers only seem to work once a year double click the clock (bottom right - not the gadget bar) you'll see something like time.windows.com just overtype with uk.pool.ntp.org see how you go with that

codswallop		(Sat 20:47 04/Jul/09) Question Author Thanks to you both I tried that ACT it made no difference,in fact,I now have no clock at all! As or your suggestion pauln 90 I don't think that I'll try it,I still have the digital clock in the bottom bar.

codswallop		(Sun 11:12 05/Jul/09) Question Author Hi ACT I right clicked on the side bar got onto "properties" and from there I was able to get the clock back,but as it's continually wrong I don't think I'll bother,thanks for your help!!!
