Ok, so here's my conundrum (love using that word:D)

My clock, keeps resetting itself.

If I set it on for instance 19.00, I restart... and then it says 21.01 when it's booted up.

Is this a stupid mistake I made with the install?
How can I permanently set it, so it won't change back...

plz help!!

I agree with bobtomay. It sounds as if you have the wrong time zone selected and you have the date and time set to automatically update (see System Preferences > Date & Time > Date & Time).

All my clocks do that, every second. I think it has something to do with the Earth's obit of the Sun.
