How to Fix the Biggest PC Annoyances
Computing hassles driving you bonkers? We feel your pain. And we have solutions--for hardware, software, and the Web.
Right Place, Wrong Time
The Annoyance: Some people never check their PC's clock to see if the time and date are accurate. My e-mail program sorts incoming messages by date, so their messages get lost among the old ones I haven't yet deleted from my in-box.
The Fix: If you use Windows XP, first double-click the time in your system tray (it's just to the right of the taskbar). Next, select Internet Time and then check Automatically synchronize with an Internet Time Server. Choose time.nist.gov from the drop-down menu (see FIGURE 4). Alternatively, if you use Windows 98, Me, or 2000, you can solve your timing dilemma by downloading the free Atomic Clock utility, which keeps your PC synchronized and up-to-date with the exact time.
