I have a new Gigabyte motherboard (B660M ds3h ax) that loses 2 hours on the clock in the bios. It does this when the computer is turned off overnight. I do think it loses exactly 2 hours. What can I do to fix this? Thanks.

Exactly 2 hours smells like the bios and computer disagree about local time vs utc and/or which timezone you're in. The hwclock command can help you make them agree with each other.

  • I do apologize. I am using Win 11. It looks like the bios is reporting right. I changed the setting in os to automatic. I changed my time zone to central. – Trekiej-2 Nov 08 '22 at 19:51
  • Thanks alot, it appears to be holding. – Trekiej-2 Nov 08 '22 at 19:52
  • It also looks like I needed to correct the time in bios each time it started. It is good now. – Trekiej-2 Nov 08 '22 at 19:54
  • Edit Windows Registry using the method shown in the link in user68186's comment, in the first answer under the paragraph Make Windows use UTC. This fix has worked for me for many years. – C.S.Cameron Nov 10 '22 at 03:18
