I found that when I set the clock to the correct time&date, next time I boot into FreeBSD it changes and reports the wrong time&date. Both BIOS and Windows reports the time correctly. dmesg shows the following message: Invalid time in clock: check and reset the date! Can't figure out what's wrong... any help will be appreciated. regards
