Win98 Daylight Savings Time Manual Update Required
The following is required to do in the USA only...
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=914387 How to configure daylight saving time for the United States in 2007 .......Quote....... INTRODUCTION Because of the Energy Policy Act, daylight saving time is extended by four weeks in 2007. This change starts on the second Sunday of March and ends on the first Sunday of November. .......EOQ......... The time has come to follow the instructions in that article, or, perhaps a bit more clear... (a) Click TZEDIT.EXE. It opens with your time zone selected. (b) Click the Edit button. (c) Change the Start Day to... Second, Sunday, March. (d) Change the Last Day to... First, Sunday, November. (e) Click the OK button. (f) Click the Close button. (g) Click Start, point to Settings, point to Control Panel, and then double-click Date/Time. (h) Click the Time Zone tab. (i) Select a different time zone than (the one you are set at), and then click Apply. (j) Click (back to the one you were set at), and then click OK. "Note Steps i and j are required for the new changes to take effect", the article says, as does TZEdit's own help screen. Do so before March 11, 2007. If you cannot get TZEdit.exe from your personal copy of the Resource Kit, get it from... ftp://ftp.microsoft.com/services/tec...Reskit/CONFIG/ ...., as Laura Fredericks did discover, after likely 1/2 ton of clicking. Much thanks to her for the reminder about all this. I've done it- but only time will tell what actually will happen on those two new Sundays. -- Thanks or Good Luck, There may be humor in this post, and, Naturally, you will not sue, should things get worse after this, PCR |
