This is my first Post here, so a big Hello to you all :)

Could someone Please explain the Difference between the "System Clock" and the "Real Time Clock".

Very Much Appreciated.

Some of these terms can be interchangeable, so I'm not sure exactly what you mean by these two.

But, system clock "usually" refers to the Front Side Bus which relates to system speed timings. Real Time Clock is usually the time set in the CMOS, literally the date and time.
