System Clock running in hyper mode on Intel system

We have a NT 4 server on a Intel Boxed motherboard and processer where the
system clock is accelerating. It is changing days about one day per 2-3
seconds.

With the date and time applet open, I watch the hands of the clock turn in
circles kind of like watching a movie. I wish I could make an avi of this


Any ideas? We already replaced the motherboard and tried new batteries.

Thank You,
Kevin Hammond

What applications are loaded and running?

Does the time/date advance at the same rate when the system in shut down? If
not it is software based.

Best Regards,

I shutdown all services that I could and ended every process I could and the
problem was still occuring. So I suspect if it is software based, it is
hiding somewhere or it is a bug.

Thanks for the follow up,
Kevin

I could not verify the date difference between shutting down and turning on
expct that it was some significant time in the future. I am scales enough
off that I can't interpret 1 minute of being turned off compared to 10
seconds of being turned off in addition to the error incurred during the
time lapse during boot.

But, I did monitor the clock in the bios and it was operating normally and
it was relatively close to the time when I shutdown the system, so whatever
is happening is actually writing to the sytem clock, but I am relatively
confident that this is software based.
