When I ran Windows NT I had this problem.  It is most likely some program
interfering with the clock, easiest way to fix it is use XP that has built
in internet time setting, although your clock will probably be too slow
because that only goes every few days.  Or download one of the free or cheap
programs that do it and have it refresh your clock every 30 minutes.
Because even if you track down the problem, your probably not going to want
to give up the program that is causing it anyway.
