Hello All, As you know time is a piece of information critical to digital forensics investigation. However, as the paper in DFRWS 2006 pointed out, the PC clock is not steady but drifting. So can any one let me know how the PC clock operates? Is there any difference between the time between Linux clock and Windows? Will the operating system be affecting the clock? Please advise. Thx.
