I had this problem when I got my computer. I tried the above first, but that failed. Try clicking on the time in the lower right corner of your screen; a window should pop up and you should be able to set the correct time there.
Clock on windows 8 is wrong time, i tried setting to internet time but its still wrong, think theres a time clock bug, anyone have same problem for windows 8 and know how to fix it?

I can imagine the inconvenience you have experienced. I will definitely try and help you in fixing the issue.
To help you suggest steps to resolve the issue, I would appreciate if you could answer the following questions:
1. Since when are you facing the issue?
2. Do you have any third party security program installed on the computer?
3. What happens when you try resetting the time?
- Go to the Start Screen, Right-click to get the "All Apps" icon in the lower right of the screen, and click it.
- Select "Control Panel"
- From Control Panel, navigate to "System and Security" >> "Clock, Language, and Region" >> "Date and Time"
- Click the "Internet Time" tab, and change the server to "time.nist.gov", then click update.
- Check if the correct time is displayed with the "auto DST option"
Hope this helps and do let us know if you need further assistance. We will be glad to help.

In my case, I have found the problem to always occur after I boot my system on Linux. When I boot back on Win 7 the clock is wrong. I check the real-time clock in the BIOS and it is always correct but still Win 7 displays the wrong time.
