I am having issues with my clock. It seems that everytime I close my laptop the clock freezes in time. When it is open it also seems like it loses time. I have to continually update it to get the correct time but if I close my laptop or if my internet drops the signal, it stops working.
View 9 RepliesEvery time I log in, after a few seconds, this globe-like icon appears on my clock bar, and the bar freezes, including the menu. I canīt open anything, I canīt even change between opened software. The only thing that works is whatever program Iīm running, which I can continue to use with no problem, but once Iīm done, I have to signout the user to be able to turn it off. I press ctrl+alt+del, and the program administrator opens, but the computer doesnīt let me access it, since it freezes. I booted in safe mode and disabled everything on start up, still happens.

View 4 Replies View RelatedMy keyboard will start malfunctioning intermittently. When I type "asdf" the results are "[]asdfghjkl;?`zxcvbnm,./-+1234567890-=qwertyuiop" when typed over and over. Notice that this is the middle row then the lower row and then the number row and then the qwerty row. This happens in Office 2003 programs when it occurs as well as other programs. It was causing too many problems so I had to restart and now it is not happening.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI've an Asus f5sl laptop with Vista Home Premium (32bit) but it's been freezing on me lately. When I boot up, it gets to the black screen with the green bar but after a few seconds, the green bar freezes and I can't log in. Occasionally it boots up after around half an hour but then Vista periodically freezes for a few seconds before resuming (which is annoying when trying to write out something etc)
I don't see any problems in Safe Mode so is possibly a driver? I've updated all my drivers, completely updated using WIndows Update, ran antispyware, used System Restore etc. Only problem is; I've moved to a new country, and like a fool, I left my Vista start up disk back home. Which I would otherwise have tried.

View 9 Replies View RelatedMy system clock keeps changing, off by 1 hour, if it's really 6:03 it says it's 5:03. I'll change it and then the next time I reboot it may have it correct or it may have it wrong. But eventually I notice that it's back to being off by 1 hour. I am running XP Home edition with all the latest updates.

This always happen when Ive been using the PC for around 1hr or more. If I close the explorer.exe application and run it again (the explorer.exe app) the problem goes away but after a while it backs.

I just got a new HP pavillion dv3 with vista home primium. But every time the computer went to sleep the clock and date stopped. I could not find out why, tried to remove sync with internet but nothing helped. But then we tried to correct the time and date ind bios and now it works Don't know why but it does. So if anyone else have the same problem I think it is worth trying.

If I restart the computer it's is ok, it only happens when i turn it off. I think it maybe the mobo battery, but I don't want to open it up if there's an easy remedy.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI was running Atomic Alarm Clock on x86, but that does not seem to work, and I see by a thread in these forums, that Chameleon clock has issues too. So, can anyone suggest a customizable clock, one that can prompt the time servers much more frequently than the built in clock, that does run properly on x64?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI just got a new computer. HP G60-235DX. I'm going out for vacation and I want to massivly underclock the 2Ghx Core Dual Processor so it can last longer. Vista's current power save mode increases the battery life but not as long as I want.
I was downloading CPU clock Monitering software and I noticed that Vista's built in power options actually changes the clock speeds but I can't find an option to let me manually choose the clock speed. For High Performance, it is 2 Ghz (as expected). For Balanced, it is 1.6 Ghz, and Power saver, it is 1.2 Ghz. I want to under clock my notebook to 600 or 700 mhz. What should I do. My bios, does not support over/under clocking.
Does anyone know how to use Vista's built-in power options to configure the clock speed? If not then, can you tell me some programs that can with a little explaination on how to use them? I've used a few and they are confusing.
I am quite a big fan of Chameleon Clock. I believe it's a brilliant enhancement to the normal clock that comes with Windows. I have been using it with XP Pro (x86) all the time. However, since moving to Vista Ultimate (x64), Chameleon Clock no longer appears on the taskbar. It's running fine, it still does all the functions (like alarms, reminders, clock chimes, etc), and I can still access it by hovering over the normal clock. But it just does not show the clock itself. I've just got the normal Vista one, which really quite defeats the point of having Chameleon Clock in the first place.
I've put up with it because the most important functions still work, but I do not understand why it will not appear. I have done nothing different to XP, and I have tried loads of different settings. The website for Chameleon Clock says it's Vista compatible, yet it does not seem to work for me. Maybe perhaps it's because of 64-bit? I do not know... Has anyone else got Chameleon Clock to show on Vista Ultimate x64?
Is there a way in Vista to change the memory clock of my GTX 285? The stock speed is supposed to be 2500 MHz but GPU-Z displays it as only 1250 MHz. If I cannot change this in Vista could somebody recommend a simple program to use to set my clock to the correct setting?
View 4 Replies View RelatedVista x64 I had the orange calendar and old style analogue wall clock appearing on the upper right hand side of the desktop. They have disappeared. However, for reasons of saving resources, I have set Vista to boot with Selective Startup only, so this may be the reason they have disappered. If so, which Startup item (or Services item) should I tick to make them reappear.

View 9 Replies View RelatedAs far as I can tell the Vista clock does not take into account that Great Britain time is UTC+1 during the summer. It is currently showing UTC and London time being the same.
Is there a setting I'm missing? I have my local time set as Pacific time and
UTC is off by one hour as it is using Great Britain time as UTC.

The correct time zone is displayed, I have disabled the internet updates and I have set the correct time who knows how many times.

The BIOS clock has no problems, displays the correct date and time every time, but it is now beginning to bug the heck out of me.
View 7 Replies View RelatedA word of warning if you're like me, own a Dell, Lenovo/IBM or HP notebook. Do not install any version, variation or anything related to Ubuntu on it. It WILL fulk your machine good and proper. The as-of-yet unfixed bug 43745343802 in Linux kernel for Ubuntu which corrupts the real-time clock, and causes your machine to boot simply with the message "Time-of-day clock stopped", leaving you unable to get into the BIOS, boot from external sources, or do anything even remotely useful with
your notebook - effectively bricking it. The fix? You can rip open your notebook and extract the CMOS battery, or call manufacturer to see how good warranty is. The awesome thing about that bug? It's in Dapper, as you can see.. but I just got it in.
Edgy, and according to the comments, it was there back in Breezy as well. The next cu**nt who even breathes Ubuntu in my presence will receive a punch in the face. Jesus fluking Christ. In my entire 23 year history of fluking with PC operating systems, not ONCE have I ever come across one capable of bricking your hardware. I'd like to support the Ubuntu developers, because from their mission statements and other crap, it sounds like they're trying to do the right thing - but folk me, a bug this serious possibly spans three releases and still isn't fixed? One that, to date, doesn't appear in other Linux distro's? Get your fluking act together!
I don't have a screen shot of the BSoD, but I did write it down word-for-word. A problem has been detected and windows has been shutdown to prevent damage to your computer. A clock interrupt was not received on a secondary processor within the allocated time interval. If this is the first time you've seen this stop error screen, restart your computer. If this screen appears again, follow these steps:
If problem continues, disable or remove any newly installed hardware or software. Disable BIOS memory options such as caching or shadowing. If you need to use safe mode to remove or disable components, restart your computer, press F8 to select Advanced Startup options, and then select Safe Mode................
In the information on computer clock syncronization with an internet time server I read: "Your clock is typically updated once a week". Is there any way I can change this interval? My computer clock isn't too accurate so I should like to syncronize say at least daily instead of once a week.

We bumped the core to 743MHz vs. 632MHz standard, the shader clock is now 1605MHz vs. 1404MHz standard and the memory is running at 1282MHz (2564 effective) vs. 1134MHz standard. The above is from GeForce GTX 275 Overclock guide Yet the whole system locks out if i have the shader clock even at 1450.
