this is pretty basic but maybe someone doesnt know it.
so you can synchronise your computer clock to a time server. motherboard clocks can keep poor time so if you want exact time then use an accurate external time server
you need a time server, well there are many. i am using the ones available from http://www.ntp.org/ which is a nice project. since there are not many for Greece I use the european pool so europe.pool.ntp.org it is best if you use your country one if you can.
so in win2k or xp, hit the command prompt (change the server in bold to what is right for you)
net time /setsntp:europe.pool.ntp.org
if you have xp then the w32time service is already started and will load automatically
if you have win2k then type
net start w32time
or you can do that when you go into control panel/administrative tools/services then right click on properties and then click start. anyway set startup type to automatic.
