ok done that, but in my date and time settings, I have it set to gmt so why was it no longer linked? So far so good, the time seems to be changing on my desktop .... will try a few more times as you suggest, then will check bios (listen to me like I know what I'm talking about :smileytongue:)
Well, clock seems to be keeping up now, bios ok so that's great! It's still taking a full five minutes to wake up though, will see if overall performance is improved over the next 24 hours, thank you so much for your time. I so hope that, that was the problem, don't much fancy taking it apart :smileywink:
