how long have you had your wii? 5-10 minute lag time on the wii time clock isn't that much too worry about; if you have got wiiconnect24 on, it could be adjusting itself according to the time servers on the internet. It is, however, possible your console battery could be losing power and might be in need of a replacement. Don't worry about the drive noise too much, I too get that here and there with games and sometimes it seems like the disc is getting spun quite harshly just trying to read the data but it is completely normal.

As long as the noise isn't consistent the whole time you are playing any game, then all is well. Some discs are a bit harder to read than others (due to various factors such as scratches, dust, fingerprints etc..) at times even though they are 'stamped' (the original ones anyway) and if using 'backup' copies try using better quality disc or re-burn another copy.

no because all my other clocks are allmost exact to the second and are done according to my 360 which gets it time when it signs on to live


Thanks Avt85 maybe it is just getting its time for the Nintendo server or something

Haha best post

Seriously though, who uses their Wii to check the time, or any games console for that matter, that's what clocks are for.

Ah, touche. Lol.

Hmm, I've never noticed the Wii losing/gaining time. I didn't think anything digital would lose/gain time. And if it was possible, i'm sure it may equate to 1 minute difference every 10 years

My 360 is the one that's messed up. I think it relies on being connected to xbox live to download the actual time. Everytime I turn it on, and it's offline, it's always the wrong time.
