Are you running an ~arch system. In the later baselayouts, clock
configuration has moved to /etc/conf.d/clock.

Thank you!!!
My rc.conf file contained no "CLOCK="" line, so I missed it. This seems
like it was overlooked or a bug in the install process. Now it appears
that my Gentoo OS is keeping time. However, it is yet to be seen
whether the BIOS keeps its time since it appeared to also be a problem.

Edit /etc/rc.conf, change the line the says "CLOCK=UTC" to "CLOCK=local".
If this doesn't help, please describe a bit more what exactly the clock
is doin

Please edit /etc/rc.conf and read the comments therein regarding the
system clock.
You may also want to emerge NTP to keep the clock up-to-date.

I looked at "adjtime". I alredy have 0.0 as the first entry, so that
mailing list thread does not apply to me.

Is the clock bouncing between two hour times while the minute stays more
or less correct? If so, then Gentoo is probably setting the hardware clock
to UTC (universal time, or Greenwich Mean Time) when it shuts down, and
Windoze is expecting local time on bootup... They may be messing with each

perhaps if you continue to have problems you could give a more thorough
explanation of the symptoms.
Like, is the clock racing ahead or behind? Is it just set to the wrong
time on boot, but goes fine after it is set?

I am not certain if this is a Gentoo problem, a bios problem, a mobo
problem, or what. I just want to know if anyone else has seen it or

I can't keep the clock on the right time. This Dell 8600 Laptop has a
