Guest Bob I Posted July 24, 2007 Posted July 24, 2007 Re: Date returns continually to 2005 each time I restart Computer You can try setting the BIOS date and see what happens.

What happens if you disconnect your network connection and then reboot? It also may be grabbing time from your BIOS clock which is not set correctly. Usually the BIOS clock will set when you set the time in Windows but maybe in your case it doesn't. Try hitting the key to go into the BIOS settings at power-up and verify that the clock is set correctly there. HTH, John

Note that in the part of his message you snipped, he said "I have to emphasise that time is always correct and month is Ok but year is always back." That makes it virtually impossible that the problem is the battery. -- Ken Blake, Microsoft MVP Windows - Shell/User Please Reply to the Newsgroup
