    You said this is a laptop. By chance, when you shutdown an reboot in the morning, is the clock time off as well? How old is the laptop? The next time your boot (the next morning) enter the BIOS and see what time it reports. I'm thinking along the lines of a CMOS battery (in the case of a laptop, a CMOS capacitor) that is not holding a charge for as long as it should.

      Thanks guys, this happens after the laptop has been shut down for a while, at least a few hours.

      The time on the desktop is correct so I presume the bios time is as well. I'0ll check in the morning.

        Heh, I had wondered the same thing and asked about the battery's age in post #32. Fintan replied in post #34, indicating that it's only about two years old.

        Great minds, &c.
