for your computer.

1. Highlight the Real-time clock option and press
Enter.
You see the current setting for the time and date:
17:10:54
Time

2. To change the time, highlight
Time
and press Enter. This
box appears:

3. Using a 24-hour time period, enter the time in the exact
format shown in the box. Use two digits for each part (you
can omit the seconds, if desired); the Setup program
automatically inserts the colons (:). For example, to change
the time to 1:30 p.m., you would type the following:
