System Date Error?
Something is causing my system time and date to revert to 1/1/2003 each time
I reboot. I can correct it in Setup, but the next reboot takes me back to 2003. This is creating havoc with some digital certificates. How can I find out what is corrupting the clock? Any ideas? -- John |

It could be dead which reverts the CMOS to it's default date/time. Billl |

That's a good thought. Thanks.
But wouldn't a dead CMOS battery affect other aspects of my system as well? -- John "Billl" wrote: --- Something is causing my system time and date to revert to 1/1/2003 each time I reboot.

The CMOS battery powers the CMOS chip. The rest of your computer gets
its power from the wall. --- Leonard Grey Errare humanum est John wrote: That's a good thought. Thanks. But wouldn't a dead CMOS battery affect other aspects of my system as well? |
