I have a new Gigabyte motherboard (B660M ds3h ax) that loses 2 hours on the clock in the bios. It does this when the computer is turned off overnight. I do think it loses exactly 2 hours. What can I do to fix this? Thanks.

Which distro and version of Linux are you using? Is it dual boot with Windows? What is the hardware, a Raspberry Pi? – user68186 Nov 07 '22 at 02:53

I prefer to edit the Windows registry to change Windows to UTC time. – C.S.Cameron Nov 09 '22 at 04:49

Exactly 2 hours smells like the bios and computer disagree about local time vs utc and/or which timezone you're in. The hwclock command can help you make them agree with each other.

I do apologize. I am using Win 11. It looks like the bios is reporting right. I changed the setting in os to automatic. I changed my time zone to central. – Trekiej-2 Nov 08 '22 at 19:51

It also looks like I needed to correct the time in bios each time it started. It is good now. – Trekiej-2 Nov 08 '22 at 19:54

Edit Windows Registry using the method shown in the link in user68186's comment, in the first answer under the paragraph **Make Windows use UTC**. This fix has worked for me for many years. – C.S.Cameron Nov 10 '22 at 03:18
