Does the clock get 5-7 minutes faster everyday? Meaning if you don't fix it for 2 days then it will be 10-14 minutes fast.

If that's not the case then the problem is that your computer is syncronizing with an internet clock. So what's happening is that everyday you "fix" the time and then the next day windows checks its time againt an internet clock and "fixes" it. By default it should set itself with time.windows.com. That should give you the correct time.

You can check this by double clicking the clock on the lower right hand part of your screen.You should then see a window with a little calender and clock on it. One of the tabs at the top of this window says internet time. Click it. If you don't want your time to be syncronised with microsofts internet clock (this is the correct time by the way) the uncheck the box that says "Automatically syncronize with an Internet time server.
