....so if the speedometer in your car shows an incorrect speed, you simply turn the dial plate to correct it, rather than fix the cause?

Apart from the fact UTC is showing correct on this device, UTC is an official world-wide atomic clock time standard. National laboratories around the world have atomic clocks synchronised to this atomic time standard. It has an accuracy of less than a micro second, and you suggest I change it by no less than an hour??? How on earth would I ever pull off such a trick?

I'm most willing to accept confrontation with a WSOD (white screen of death). The educational aspect of the exercise outweighs the risk of bricking the device. However, version 7.60 and 7.80 are the only FW flavours I have for this particular HWID. The only additional version available at "Perry" is 7.70, but that is even more recent than the 7.60 version which I already tried.

Will try to backup rgn.41, then erase it and see if that brings back the correct local time. If not, I will see if formatting the internal memory using RMPrepUSB helps and then start with a clean slate. I can always restore the backed up rgn.41.

To be continued...
