Are you on the internet because if you are you could be taking the time from another server which could be in a different country etc?

I agree with the above post. Make sure that you are not using time synchronization software which is picking up the time from a different zone. Also, make sure that the battery is good on your BIOS. IF the computer is three months old, take it back to the place you got it and have them look at it, as it should still be under warranty.
