Check what the clock's set to in your BIOS. Sometimes your bios may reset the time, causing windows to reset the time. Also, your bios clock battery may need replacing (although that's unlikely)

This has been driving me crazy. My clock keeps changing times on my pc for no apparent reason. I have tried turning off internet time sync, didn't work. Set it manually, didn't work. How do i stop it from changing? Btw im not sure if this affect's it but at night i turn off the powerbar my pc is connected too. Thx again
