Windows clock running fast

    I'm using Windows XP and have the clock set to automatically synchronise while online. I noticed that it was about 5 mins fast last night, so I reset the correct time and all was well for a while. Now it's running 5 mins fast again. Anyone else having this problem, and if not any ideas what could be causing it ? Could it be a problem with the automatic update feature ?

    Synchronise with what. Maybe their server is fast? What are you comparing it to? The Radio1 bipper is usually the best thing to compare it too (one second after the last bip is the time).

    It was synchronising with the server time.windows.com. I've changed it to one of the other servers and it seems ok now.
