Removing Daylight Savings Time Dialog Box?

Aug 3, 2005

Twice a year, XP displays a dialog box telling the user that it's changed the time due to daylight savings time.I want to keep this dialog box from popping up, but I can't find a way to do it.I understand that I could turn off the automatic adjustment,and thus have the dialog not appear.But I want the adjustment just not the dialog box.So does anyone know of a mystery registry key or function to help me? I've been throught technet & msdn etc.

UPDATE: Time Zone/Daylight Savings Time?

Nov 27, 2006

Since Windows has been released several time zone changes have occurred, and beginning this coming year the Daylight Saving Time period will change in the US. Specifically, DST will start three weeks earlier (2:00 A.M. on the second Sunday in March) and will end one week later (2:00 A.M. on the first Sunday in November). Thus, Microsoft is releasing an update to address changes that have or will take place in several countries. The update will be delivered automatically to Windows XP SP2 users starting December 12th (or can be downloaded now by clicking here) and will be included in Windows Vista.

Daylight Savings Time - Setting New Dates?

Jan 26, 2007

If I'm not mistaken, daylight savings time beginning and ending times will be changed this year. Am I to assume that we only have to make changes on Servers of which the clients get their time from? Outside of that, other systems that aren't server dependent such as UPS machines and such, will need the time to be changed manually?Just curious if anyone has already started to work on this.

3rd Party Fix For 2000 And NT For Daylight Savings Time?

Mar 5, 2007

Since Congress passed the New Daylight Savings Time effective this year, computers without Windows XP or updates or without Vista will not reset its time correctly this year (or future years)--it will be 3 weeks late in the spring since they are starting DST three weeks early and one week early in the fall. So for Windows 2000 and NT

Daylight Savings Time Dates Wont Changed As Specified?

Mar 5, 2007

i was going to wait and see what they did at work about the DST problem and then apply a similar concept at home.They supposedly patched XP (at work)for the new dates for DST but then they went and changed all the times in my Outlook Calendar,at least in the two extended date intervals ,by 1 hour. I really don't understand the last part.If I have an appointment at 10:00, it still is at 10:00 DST not withstanding, at least I think so Shouldn't Outlook match the appt time with whatever time the system clock is displaying and work accordingly?

Installation Canceled Due To Daylight Savings Time Settings?

Mar 7, 2007

Ok, I've got 5 XP pro sp2 machines, and 1 Server 2003 Small Business Edition. I downloaded update # 931836 which Microsofts web site said would correct the issue. I burned the file to a disc and proceeded to each station to run the update. On the XP pro sp2 machines windows told me the update I was trying to install was canceled because the current time zone update on the machine was more current. On the Small Business Server I get an error that reads,"Update.ine file is invalid and the installation quits. Is it possible that the critical updates that my machines automatically install have already taken care of this issue and I just need to let it go?

Daylight Savings Time Automatic Switch Back To Manual?

Oct 29, 2006

I had the box checked on the computers on my network to automatically go to daylight savings time. Because of a particular application, I decided that I didn't want to automatically switch back to standard time at 2:00 AM. I would do it manually later.So I unchecked the box on the server and all of my PCs on the 28th. When I got ready to make the manual change around 5:00 AM on the 29th, they were all already on standard time. Does this mean that the box only affects going to daylight savings time and that it will always revert to standard time?

Daylight Savings Checkbox Missing?

Apr 3, 2005

The DST checkbox seems to be missing from my Time Zone tab. On the Date & Time tab, the time zone shows as U.S. Mountain Standard Time. I recently upgraded from XP-Home (SP2) to XP-Pro (SP2). This issue did not exist in my Home version. Any ideas on how I go about "fixing" this--other than manually changing the time?

Daylight Savings Update - Using TZupdate.reg?

Mar 10, 2008

We have about 100 computers on our network. I had installed late last year the "How to configure daylight saving time for Microsoft Windows operating systems" on our domain. This morning, about 90% of the systems were updated correctly. I'm not sure what the issue is that not all systems updated with the correct time. I have gone and rebooted a couple of the systems and had the user log back in, but they still have the wrong time. I know I can go in manually as an admin and update the time, but I was hoping there was a more efficient way.

Clock Wont Stay Reset For Daylight Savings?

Mar 12, 2008

My system clock on my XP system will not stay advanced 1 hour for Daylight Savings Time. After about 1 hour it will jump back to one hour earlier.It should have changed automatically for DST since I had the box checked, but it didn't, so I thought it odd I had to change it manually for DST. But it won't stay changed, it keeps jumping back an hour after about an hour's time.

Removing OS's From Boot Loader: Have Windows XP And A Windows XP Setup Same Time?

Apr 19, 2006

I went to try to install windows xp onto a computer that already had windows on it. I did not boot from the cd. To do it without using the cd it has to copy the installation files to the computer and then run them. When setup does this it creates a new choice of an operating system to boot from called "Windows XP Setup." So now I have a Windows XP and a Windows XP setup. I've been in msconfig and looked at boot.ini but that didn't help

When I click "OK" the program will then proceed to run and which I have to click quite a number of "Run As" dialogue box for all the background program to run. If not it will struck there until I click "OK".Not only that whenever I run any software program the "Run As" dialogue box will appear and I have to click "OK" in order for the program to run.Some of the programs are affected as it cannot run properly.

Open / Save As Dialog Box

Apr 30, 2005

Running Windows XP SP2 and I have just noticed in the couple days, that whenever I use an open/save as dialog box (to open/save a song in from firefox, to send a file in messenger etc), all the files are getting listed and arranged by name in reverse order (z-a).They were always getting displayed by name in the right order, which I assume is the default, until recently.Any idea on how I could get it back that way? I know it is a minor issue, but it has really decreased the speed with which I look through my system.I've tried arranging the icons by name, but it never seems to save.

Save As Dialog Box Hangs

Jul 27, 2005

In any applications, when I click save as, that box hangs for at least 35-40 seconds before I can tell it where to save the file. Exemple: In IE, if I download a file, I'll click save as, and wait 35-40 seconds before I get a response from the computer. I have tried just about anything I know to fix this without having to reformat. I have the same dehavior in messenger or any of the other programs I use. The problem seems to be with the open/save as dialog box. I run WinXp Pro, SP2. Does anybody have any clues on how to fix this bizzare problem of mine?

Save Dialog Box Instead Of Print

May 19, 2009

Desktop - Windows XP SP3 - AMD Athlon 1800+1.53GHz - 640MB RAM (Built 2002)(Wife's Computer) - HP 3740 Printer.I have only just fixed this PC after a 6 month viral infection and now have full security (if there is such a thing) and all seems to be working fine except that whenever I try to print, I get the Save Dialog Box (prompting a '*.xls') instead of the Print Dialog Box. Naturally with all the Malware scans and fixes that have been done, the Registry has taken alot of messing about but should be clean now. However there is an entry which I cannot find any info for;
HKLMSoftwareMicrosoftWindowsCurrentversionRunlphc17aj0er6r.exe Supposedly residing in C:/Windows/System32 but I have been unable to find it there. As a temporary precaution I have renamed it's file extension. Does anyone know anything about this file and whether there may be a connection with the Save/Print problem.

Explorer Dialog Does Not See The Short Cuts?

Dec 30, 2008

The short cuts on my HDD work when using the desktop to get through them, but upon opening any sort of Explorer dialog it does not see see the short cuts at all. Previously, when the problem first started, it(the Explorer dialog) would see them as a ".lnk" rather than treating them as a short cut, and taking me to the place specified. So, were I attaching a picture to an email, if said picture was in a folder that a short cut could lead me to, it would simply attach a "*.lnk" to the email rather than taking me to the folder where the pic resides.

Mystery Dialog Box When Logging Into Account

Feb 16, 2006

I encountered a weird problem while booting up my computer after being away for a month. When logging into any XP account (including administrator and additional new accounts with administrator access), I encounter a mystery dialog box which contains nothing other than "yes" and "no" buttons. This box pops up after the system accepts my password. I can tell all bootup processes are still happening in the background but if I press either yes or no buttons, the account logs off and I am back to the login screen. I would really appreciate it if anyone can tell me how to figure out what is launching the mystery dialog box or how to read the log file to find the problem point.

So, what do you think is the problem and how can I stop the computer from arbitrarily restarting itself?

The company domain is selected by default or you can select the local computer. The company domain is controlled by a server running Small Business Server 2003.This computer is now going to be used at home for personnal use. How do I get rid of that "business" login and get back to the normal XP login? Normal XP login being the screen with the list of users and their associated icons.

Display Properties - Dialog Box Without Tabs

Mar 9, 2005

when I right click the desktop and choose properties, the "Display Properties" dialog box appears but it doesn't have any tabs. The only thing showing is "Themes". No "Desktop" tab, no "Appearance" tab. No Tabs at all. I havn't installed any new video card drivers or any new software. Also, I noticed that if I switch themes (XP to Classic) the tabs reappear. But when I close the box and reopen it, there gone. It almost looks like the "Display Properties" box has been resized. I say that because when the tabs are there,(after a theme switch), and I click on the "Appearance" tab, the "Effects" and "Advanced" buttons at the bottom look a little "cramped". Actually the bottom of the "Advanced" button is missing(hidden). But when the tabs at the top are missing the two buttons look normal. Is there a way I can resize the "Display Properties" box?
