Overview
When the Window NT System Time value rolls over from the year 1999 to 2000, the Century Byte value stored in the real time clock (RTC) is not changed until up to one hour later when the time daemon writes out the date. This issue only affects systems with older BIOSes that do not automatically update the century byte on reboot (contact your hardware manufacturer for BIOS details).
