Date And Time Changes After Restarting.
Dec 9, 2009
I'm having a problem with Vista 64, I've verified the date and time in the bios (new motherboard) what happens is the date and time change to Dec 2016 after the PC restarts and the desktop is ready for action. I've scanned for viruses and malware and none were found, this is a new install from scratch.
Also I have a "Interactive Services Detection" error that forced me to disable the service, does anybody know how to fix it instead of disabling the service? I could just do another re-install but I'd like to avoid that right now.

I recently went into Change Date & Time Internet time tab and chose a time standard to connect with. After doing that I went onto the internet and connected with time.nist.gov and checked the time. After that I was no longer able to go into the internet time tab. It tells me that time.nist.gov is the time connection and I can't change it. It tells me I need to have permission to do this as administrator. I am the administrator! What goes here?

Occasionally, the time portion of the date/time display gets way out of whack. I think I am up to date on windows updates.

Everytime I reboot my machine a new date and time appear. My computer is set to adjust the time based on the internet but today is now June 2, 2008 and the computer says the time is 4:44 am. My clock shows 8:35. the clock can only be changed the administrator (my husband by password only). The date hops all over everytime we reboot or log off and then log on again.

Is there a way to show the time and date in one line in the system tray/taskbar instead of using the way when you unlock the taskbar and make it larger?

I needed to force-restart my Vista Ultimate a short while ago. It was entirely frozen. Upon restart my time and date had been reset to December 31, 2002, 11:25 p.m. How concerned do I need to be about this surprising situation? Does this represent a virus? I have performed a complete virus scan (AVG 8); nothing was found. I have also performed a complete scan with Spyware Doctor. Likewise, nothing was found.

measure the ReBoot-Time (restart time) for our systems. You can see how to here: How to See What Your Boot Up Time is in Vista
Here's my ReBoot-Time:
Running Processes: 41
Started Services: 36
Automatic logon

Is it wise to have more than 1 antispyware program performing real-time protection at one time?

We are using Dell laptops while travelling or at field offices.
We have to reset the clock and time zone, every time when we get to new
locations. That is quite a hassle. Is there better ways to do this?

I've got an Sony VGN-BX197XP laptop that I've upgraded to Windows Vista Ultimate. Since then I've encountered some strange display-related issues:
1) I could only boot into Aero about 50% of the time. The rest of the time I forced onto the Standard theme with no Aero option. Since installing Vista SP1 I can't get Aero at all.
2) When not running in Aero mode I can't get the Windows Media Player to play video files, nor get a Perfomance Index.
3) If I plug in an external monitor I can't get a picture on the laptop monitor but I *do* get a picture on the external monitor and it runs Aero 100% of the time. It will also play video files and give me a performance index.

Recently I have bought Vista Home Premium x64 and to be honest I am having quite annoying issue with this OS . I had installed Vista on RAID0 partition. Additionally I have three other sata drives for my data . I noticed that from time to time when I am working on vista , system freeze for 2-3 sec then everything is fine and I can continue work. Particulary when for example I am opening some application or even windows explorer , my computer etc. (when it hangs I can't move my mouse). Moreover when it freeze I "hear" something inside my computer case as if my computer weak up from hibernation.

Im in vista 64 bit. I was trying to install a licence for Cubase and was getting a time, calendar error. I look and everything is on time to the second hand on my wall. But for the hell of it, I tryed syncing it to all the availible servers but got: "An error occured while Windows was synchronizing with whatever.server" However I can ping the servers in comand prompt. And also, like the topic says, It still keeps perfect time. It set it's own time. So Im clueless. A bios thing perhaps?

First off, let me just say I'm pretty much a total dunce when it comes to computers. So, anyway I just got a new hard drive because my old one died and it seems I already have problems. I had similar problems with the old one (kept restarting itself) until eventually it got to the point I couldn't start or even repair/reinstall Windows because there were no drivers. However this time I don't get the BSOD when it happens, at least visibly (in the error report it tells me the Problem Event Name is BlueScreen).
This is the second or third time (one of the times could have been because of a power outage) it's happened since I got my new hard drive on the 16th. The screen turns black for a few seconds and then it restarts. With my last hard drive it would give the BSOD after the black screen, but not with this one. I just don't know what to do, I thought my problem was with my hard drive the last time which is why I bought a new one and it seems to have helped, but now I'm thinking there might have been problems elsewhere too........

Im a little lost on where i go next with this issue. I got a computer about 1.5 years ago now with Vista Premium on it. Everything was great up until a few months ago. My computer started restarting randomly. I thought it might be a virus so i did the normal scaning and found nothing, just to be safe i reformatted it with a clean windows install. But its still happening. I didnt change any hardware, its in a properly ventilated area, and nothing in perticular seems to trigger it. Sometimes it can go 2 days without restarting once, some times it can do it twice in half an hour. I dont get a blue screen and i havnt been able to find anything in the event logs.

I have a multi boot system with XP, Vista, 7 (RC1) and Ubuntu. If I select "restart" in order to reboot, it just waits until I do a hard reset. If I select shutdown, then it does so. Neither XP or 7 has this problem. Any fix for this?

I am working on my mothers computer. She has a dell inspiron 1525 running windows vista basic.
She is having a huge problem. Whenever she starts her computer, it starts up normally, and goes all the way to the log in screen. You can log in and everything seems fine. It takes about 30 seconds from the time that it shows the accounts to choose from until it automatically restarts. I let the battery completely drain and am recharging it. It is still auto restarting. Her AV was up to date and no problems there.

Since yesterday, my PC has asked me to restart it to finish installing important updates about 10 times.
Surely they can't have had that many updates?

When i go into my downloads folder, a message comes up saying Windows Expolorer is not working. then .. Restarting and my whole desktop refreshes... I wonder because I installed a microsoft update which i dont think installed properly crashed my computer, so i did a system restore. That was a week before this problem arose.

I get the message "Blue screen" problem.. After shutting down the computer, he won't shut down. After several minutes he restarts the system again. Sometimes I am lucky and the computer shuts down. Other times he restarts again.

My computer will shutdown improperly during the night. I thought it was the automatic updates, but I checked the update center and it says nothing has been done. Sometimes, when it is sleeping and I try to start it back up, it will also shutdown for no apparent reason.

One of my Intel Core 2 Quad processor cores has a temperature consistently lower than the other 3 cores, WHY? I have a question. I need to know the reason why one of my cores (Core 2) is running about 3-4 degrees below the temperatures of the other 3 cores on my Intel Core 2 Quad processor. Restarting and rebooting seems not to help, it is always the same core with the lower temperature. Is there something wrong with that particular core or something overly defective with the processor itself??? It rarely ever fluctuates and stays at 33 degrees Celsius. The other core temperatures are around 36-37 degrees at rest/idle and do frequently go up when an action is performed on the computer.
Please let me know what is going on with this consistent core 2 temperature and please provide me with a reason why this is happening. Is it something that is beginning to go with this processor? Is there anything that can be done about it to get all four (4) core temperatures in balance.

I really hope this issue can be easily resolved. I built my rig about three months ago and for the last month the system has been restarting randomly. It will restart at idle, if I'm in a word doc, or on the web. It will seem to freeze for two seconds, then go black and restart.I have disabled the automatic restart to hopefully see a bsod error code, but even with the automatic restart disabled the system does not display a bsod error and still restarts.The minidump folder is empty and the event viewer simply states that an unexpected shut down occurred.My graphic card's avg. temp is 50c and the cpu 46c. I've ran SiSoftware Sandra stability test close to 48 hours with no errors or restarts, then the next day at idle...restart Bios and drivers are current...I am stumped!

i recently bought a new computer, its running Vista (64 bit) Home Premium, and when i first got it i attempted to do an "Easy Transfer" from my old laptop to this new desktop (the laptop was running Vista Home Premium ((32 bit i believe)), not sure if this may have anything to do with the problem)... but anyway, after the Easy Transfer was done, after shutting off my pc and restarting it, upon the windows startup screen the message "incorrect password" pops up first thing before i even try to type in any password o.O ... my pc is secured with a password and if i click ok and then type in the password it works fine, but at start up now every single time the first thing i see is "incorrect password" regardless of the fact that i havnt tried typing in the password yet, and like i said, if i just click ok and type in the password it works fine, so this problem hasnt really been bothering me that much, but i do find it quite odd and was wondering if anyone knew what this could be caused from (its the least of my problems with Vista 64 bit so far btw -_-) .... but yea, ive never seen a vista system show the "incorrect password" message before you even attempt to type the password in at startup haha...
