"Hi my name is Dave Andrews today I'm going to show you how to reset the computer clock using Microsoft Windows. Let's go to our computer and as you can see down here at the very bottom of right hand side of the computer screen we have a clock. Now I'm going to show you how to set the time on this clock and by doing so you can also set the date on the computer. Now basically all you got to do is right click somewhere on that clock and then let's just click on adjust date and time. This pulls up a little more information about the current date and time on your computer including your time zone. It gives you a read out on the time and the date and shows you a little image of a clock here. To change the time just click on change date and time. Now you have to be an administrator to do this so it's going to pop up saying you need permission, just click on that to continue. So here we accessed the date and time setting screen. To change the date on the clock we basically just click on a different date and we can scroll it over, and change the date whatever we like. To change the time, just click inside the time and you can either type the time that you would like it to show or you can click inside of the say the minutes field here and just use these little arrow buttons here to change the minutes. Now once you've set it to what you would like it to be all you have to do is click on the ok button. Now I've set it to four fifty seven on September the tenth. As you can see our changes that we have taken have changed the time to say four fifty seven on September the tenth. My name is Dave Andrews and I've just shown you how to change the time on the Windows Microsoft clock."
