due to the clocks being set back....time is off by an hour now. will the board be set or not??? i am already set for my proper time zone...so i assume there must be an adjustment made directly on the board. the time has actually been off by almost 2 minutes even before the clock change. just an fyi - lol - i am a stickler for accuracy. ;) hope it can be remedied.

The board time is right, no? I'm at GMT-7 and it's showing the right time for me...

The board time doesn't change, but you will have to manually change your time in your profile. You don't choose a time zone there, just a time relative to GMT. So if you were in Daylight Time and are now in Standard Time, you'll have to switch it manually.

What time zone are you in? If you're in the Eastern, it should now be set to GMT -5, Central -6, Mountain -7, Pacific -8...

Yeah, I agree. Oddly enough, the board seems perfectly synchronized with my computer clock ;)

nope...i think it is the board. the former board was perfectly in synch....and my computer was/is in synch elswhere - just not here. fixed the standard time issue at least - lol - but still not right on the mark. eh well.....nothing to be done about it.

I think your computer clock is off by 2 minutes then as well.
