I am trying to get my Windows 7 Professional machine to synchronise time correctly. This laptop is not a member of any Windows domain.
If I try to go to the clock settings, Internet Time tab, and click on "Update Now", it tells me that an error occurred. Misc. commands / output from my system is below.
What else can I try?
w32tm /monitor /domain:time.windows.com
GetDcList failed with error code: 0x8007054B.
Exiting with error 0x8007054B
w32tm /query /configuration

Warning:
Reverse name resolution is best effort. It may not be
correct since RefID field in time packets differs across
NTP implementations and may not be using IP addresses.
Wow, just wow... That is exactly the information that I needed. I've been looking for an answer for so long, I had given up. Thanks so much.
Just to be clear as to how I resolved this:

For some reason, mine was set to NT5D5, not NTP. I changed it in gpedit.msc > Computer Configuration > Administrative Templates > System > Windows Time Service > Time Providers > Configure Windows NTP Client.
