Daylight Savings Time Issue


Recommended Posts

Guest Scott
Posted

My XP XP2 computer has the latest 942763 patch but this morning still shows

Daylight Standard Time. The settings in Time Zone are correctly set to

automatically update for Daylight Savings Time. I tried rebooting and

reinstalling the patch but the setup informed me it had already been applied.

 

What needs to be done to fix this?

have to be automatic, what are you doing with all the clocks in

your house?

Is the correct Time Zone selected?

Thanks for the reply. Yes, the correct time zone is selected. The only thing

different about this computer is that I performed an XP repair on it a couple

of months ago.

The XP repair may have written over some of the code the patch updated.

Try removing the patch in Control Panel>Add or remove programs. Be

sure the Show updates box is checked. Then reinstall it and see if it works.

You need to find the Daylight Savings patch and reinstall it.

Re: Daylight Savings Time Issue

 

To save disk space I remove the $NtUninstall...$ folders after a month or so

if there are no issues. May have to revisit that strategy. Given the fact

that since I deleted that folder for kb942763 and it no longer shows up in

Add/Remove Programs even with 'Show updates' checked, is there any other way

to uninstall it?

NOW you know why it might not be a good idea to delete all that

stuff... HUH?

It might be a security program blocking the Registry change it needs to

make. A few, but not all, of the programs now doing this are:

Ad-aware's Ad-Watch

IBM Access Connections

Kaspersky

McAfee VirusScan and/or Antispyware

Norton AV

Spyware Blaster

Spybot> Tools> IE Tweaks

Spybot- Teatimer

Spysweeper

Spyware Doctor

Windows Defender

Zone Alarm (free) 6.5 Reported to be fixed in later versions.

 

In the case of Zone Alarm 6.5 or Norton 2007 it actually has to be

uninstalled. Make sure the Windows Firewall is turned on until you

reinstall Zone Alarm.

 

Boot into Safe Mode with Networking and try the change.

Run regedit and do a find on KB92763. That's where the installation info

is stored. If it's there try deleting each instance of the key.

Re: Daylight Savings Time Issue

 

I had essentially the same problem as Scott (Win reinstall, later delete

uninstall update files, new update shows as already being in place) and this

FIXED IT!!!

Re: Daylight Savings Time Issue

 

Chances are that the machine is not fully patched now. See this KB then

check in at Windows Update website:

 

Updates are not installed successfully from Windows Update, from Microsoft

Update, or by using Automatic Updates after you repair a Windows XP

installation:

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/943144

 

NB: Also applies to clean installs, upgrade installs, and Recovery installs.
