    Maybe CMOS battery needs replacing.

    check your anti virus , I have seen this been caused by mcafee antivirus on all different versions ,

    The claim to release a patch from time to time to resolve this , give them a shout they maybe able to advise

    If its a motherboard issue , the easiest way to identify this problem would be to leave the computer unplugged overnight then power it up and check the time in the bios , if there is an issue with the cmos battery the time should be incorrect

    Have the same issue but I run Nod32. I suppose I'll leave it unplugged tonight to confirm whether it's the battery or not. I'm not overly worried as I'm replacing the whole PC in a week...

    As a work around you can increase the frequency with which vista checks its clock against the internet time. A google search should show how to do it - I've forgotten but it was handy enough.
