Winx XP automatically updates
In Response To: BTW - Dimension4 is now updated for Win XP ()

: I used Dimension4 for four years (with great

: operating system. I didn't seem to work for
: me under Win XP.

: Dimension4 is a PC Clock update program
: connected to atomic clocks via the Internet.

: Yesterday I checked the website (

: updated to operate with Win XP. Seems to be
: working well for me agian.

I'm not sure where I read this, but I believe certain editions of Win XP have it setup so that you can automatically have the OS query time servers on the internet, even without the installation of an extra program. I believe it is the editions that are not connected to a certain type of network. All you need to do it right click the clock, choose adjust date/time, go to the third tab (internet time) and pick the server (mine is set to time.nist.gov) I think I have it set to synchronize every week.
