Restore put clock out by an hour.

Thread needs solution

The good news is that the restore I did of my C drive today using TrueImage v8 build 826 from an incremental image on external usb connected harddrive back in April worked [despite acronis flashing up some sort of bios bug at some point which got me worried], and my AMD processor laptop with Sata hard drive is fast again and XP hibernates and standbys again. The bad news is that, living in the UK, I had not noticed that now that it is November, my clock displayed 1 hour earlier than the proper GM time and I was consequently an hour late picking up my child from a weekend scout camp, suddenly realised when I got in the car and saw the real time on the car clock. Bit of a panic! Scout leaders probably think I told a fib because don't the clocks go back to winter GM time from British Summertime, not forward, maybe the computer double compensated? Anyway, I have now clicked on the auto clock update button and instantly it corrected. Just wanted to point out that this is something to watch out for!

Hello Alan,

Thank you for sharing this information with us.

Yes, the product just creates an image of the whole system on the moment of snapshot creation, and if you had your clock set to Summertime, the product will restore the image with the same settings. Probably that was the cause...

Anyway, please pay attention to clock settings after recovery and compare it with the real ones to avoid this situation.

Please let me know if you have any questions concerning our products, we would be glad to assist you.

Thank you.
