Maybe I would better have written "not respond to" rather than "not recognize". The implication as quoted is multiboot. I don't have any PCs with only Windows installed. I doubt any of them have ever been booted to Windows during a change period. Linux is in charge of making hardware clock adjustments here at the scheduled epochs. BTW, here in the USA most clocks are wrong nearly 8 months of each year, second Sunday in March to first Sunday in November. -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."
