Set time permanently

[Moltke]

You're right. It's not a BIOS issue, it's a Windows issue. It dates back to the days of DOS. Windows runs on 'Local time' and Linux runs on 'UTC'. Read this over & see if it sounds like your problem:

This comes up a lot. Some Linux distro's on install allow you to choose between 'what Linux likes' & 'what Windows likes', when it comes to time zone. Puppy Linux is really good for this on install.

Thank you so much! This solved the problem. I never imagined Windows would affect Linux at this range  :  The solution offered here http://www.webupd8.org/2014/09/dual-boot...tween.html worked like a charm I followed the instructions, rebooted and voila! time was displayed correctly! So thanks again for taking the time to answer so I took this pain away from me
