    Erm....what is 20:18 in Dutch? I was under the impression it was 20:18
    Haha it means that it is 8:18 PM The time know is 9:06 PM :P
    I'm still really confused - do you want the clock to (1) say the time in Dutch words, (2) show the time in digits using the 24-hour clock format in the Dutch timezone, (3) show the time in AM/PM format in the Dutch timezone, or (4) none of the above?

    1. Don't know - will need a 3rd party app?
    2. Change your timezone and regional settings to The Netherlands in the Control Panel
    3. Change the regional settings to The Netherlands but select AM/PM in the clock settings.

    Do you want the time to say 20:18PM instead of 08:18PM? If yes then the link I posted should help.

    Your clock is showing correctly. The abbreviations AM and PM are from Latin.

    AM Ante Meridiem (before noon)
    PM Post Meridiem (after noon)

    See 12-hour clock - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia for an explanation.

    Hey everyone,

    I'm having a problem with my computer clock. I have installed everything in Dutch and my location The Netherlands but still my clock show english time. Instead of showing 20:18 it sais 8:18 PM. How can I fix this?

    If you have not gotten this yet, here it is. Go to Control Panel and click on "Region and Language". Under Short Time put HH:mm == Under Long Time put HH:mm:ss.
    Make sure the H's are Capital H's. That should do it.
