VISTA into the PAST???

[apprentice idiot]

SOMEONE HELP! Whether because of a new update or change to a new monitor (LG
L226WA Analogue) yesterday , my system clock travels back in time at each
reboot to May 6th, 2006 at 12:06 AM. And, as of this morning, Microsoft
Outlook has gone my-core-soft and decided to to set me alarms for a buch of
e-mails; yet, no matter how many times I dismiss them all, they bounce right
back up again. Luckily, I discovered that all will go away for a longer while
when I close the file from the bottom bar.

If any cybernaut knows how to deal with this cybernaughtiness, I'll be much
obliged.

Time is maintained on your MOBO so as to the time, you have a problem there.
I would replace the battery, and do a reset on the MOBO then see what
problems you have left.

Re: VISTA into the PAST???

Unless MS gave up on the design, I think there are actually two clocks - the
hardware clock that runs off the CMOS, and the software clock that is
maintained by the OS. I have no idea if this is important, but the OS part
may have been corrupted somehow since that is responsible for updating the
time-display you see on screen. The design is peculiar, but was incorporated
because of differences in the way seconds are calculated, I believe - plus
the two clocks have a different date of origin.

The software clock is set at boot-time, reading the hardware clock, so
replacing the battery, I agree, would be a natural starting point.
