    about a week ago the clock dropped back two hours, today it dropped back three hours. Both times I had to manually adjust. W7 64 bit, I use three browsers ie8, FF, chrome. Thanx.

    Does it drop in exact hour increments? Or is it random? If it's random, change your CMOS battery.

    Most likely the motherboards battery as Lithus said. Should be one of those weird circular ones you probably dont have lying around the house
