time error?

GT I.N.C · 08-12-2002, 04:14 AM

i was just playing around with my CP and found the time zone option

yeh well i tried using the timezone which i should be using (EAST Australian time) but the boards said that the time was 8:11 when it really is 7:11 so i ended up setting my timezone to korea bla bla bla and now the time is correct, does anyone know why this happens ?

Others have asked this question as well. It has to do with the fact that the machine is using daylight savings time and the rest of the world doesn't.

Well Yes and No, On or around October 27th this year, it will be resolved.

To see when next year and for a while, see this page.
