Clock problems

In Indiana we had to start observing DST, this meant forwarding our clocks one hour ahead. I still use Win 98 and changed the time on my clock one hour forward. The trouble is it won't change by its self, I have to manually change the date myself. The time is fine. Any ideas on this? I have XP and did the same thing with it and the date is OK and changes each day.

1. AM/PM?

Is the AM/PM correct? I've accidentally done this many times on various clocks over the years.

2. I think this is the same in 98...

Double-click the clock, then click the Time Zone tab, and select the general Eastern Time Zone (Indiana is Eastern, right?). Windows 98 would not have gotten an update for Indiana, so it still thinks you don't observe DST.

3. Thanks to all

I changed it from PM to AM. Hope this works. Also changed the time zone.
