Expanded American advanced time - windows XP DST has no

Given that the US federal Government extended advanced time saving a couple of years, the Windows XP system time is off by an hour for about 6 weeks each year.  Not a big deal until I got an iPod and I use it instead of a watch, and if I sync it during the recently extended in spring or autumn DST window time of my iPod is disabled by the same time.   Any fix available from Microsoft for this?

The computer is fully patched to Windows Update?

Are your date and correct time zone settings?

    Go to this site and create a bootable CD.

    http://hddguru.com/software/2005.10.02-MHDD/

    Boot from the CD.

    If she asks do you want SCSI, click No or just press ENTER. (countdown to 30 seconds)

    The port selection select your HARD drive. (Usually 1, 3 or 6).

    If you do not see your HARD drive, you will need to restart and go into the BIOS and SATA ATA value.

    After choosing your type of HARD drive, ERASE and press to enter. (This will erase all data).

    Leave it to erase the entire disc. (Depending on the size, it may take 2 to 5 hours.)

    Once done erase all disk F4 2 hit shots and will start the test.

    Many people simply replace the HARD drive and all that is wrong is there is simply soft errors. (Errors caused by software not hardware errors.)

    If you need help running the program let me know.

    . This has happened for quite awhile and I tried many suggestions on the web. If you do an internet search, you will see this seems to be a fairly common problem, but I can't find any official solution of Microsoft. I am afraid that I do not receive the latest updates and security patches so would like to help with this question.

    Hi guys

    I had installed up-to-date antivirus software and my problem seems to start after an update from Microsoft. Do a search on the web and you will see similar stories. I spent so much time trying to solve this I think it's better just to do a re-install. Certainly not the resolution I had hoped, but appreciate this type of questions are almost impossible to solve the problems through intermittent mail such messages.

    Thank you

    Hi KieranFitzgibbon,

    1. did you of recent changes on the computer?

    2. are you referring to the xreg.exe or ereg.exe?

    If his ereg.exe, then it is related to the registration of Logitech products.

    Method 1

    I suggest that use you the Microsoft safety scanner to remove the infections of viruses or malware to the computer and check if it helps.

    http://www.Microsoft.com/security/scanner/en-us/default.aspx

     

    You can also use Microsoft Security databases to scan your computer

    http://www.Microsoft.com/security/PC-security/MSE.aspx

    Method 2

    If the previous step fails then I suggest that scan you SFC on the computer that would be a system file corrupt on the computer search and replace.

    The analysis may take some time, so be patient. Windows allows to fix corrupt or missing files it finds. If the information of the installation CD is required to fix the problem, you may be asked to insert your Windows XP installation CD.

  • Windows Media Player has encountered a problem and needs to close, heartbreaking.

    Recently, while ripping the cd to Windows Media Player 11 on XP Service Pack 3, I'm frequently getting the message "Windows Media Player has encountered a problem and needs to close."  It happens usually during the second or third disc.  I then close and reopen and am immediately able to rip the CD.  Sometimes the player will immediately be closed as soon as I click on "start rip."   Any ideas?

    The same thing happens if you rip to MP3 or WMA?

    Post here the technical details of the accident. Go to Start- run , type eventvwr.msc , and then press ENTER.

    In Event Viewer, access to the application log and look for an error in the list, there should be two entries for the last crash. Double-click on these two events and copy/paste their description in your post.

  • Windows Media Player has encountered a problem...

    "Windows Media Player has encountered a problem during the synchronization of the file to the device. For any additional help click web help. »

    This is the last error I get. Web site of Microsoft, and then said: you received the C00D1236 error message when you use Windows Media Player. Cannot sync the file.

    So, what led up to it is:

    1 problems with the device for a long time.

    2. Finally studied and found the latest firmware and update the device. This fixed some problems, which is excellent, but caused worse problems.

    3. I was getting: "Windows Media Player cannot access the file. The file may be in use, you won't have access to the computer on which the file is stored, or your proxy settings are may not be incorrect. "on several random files. He could do and then if I deleted everything and tried again, it could do with different files. He took too long between files during synchronization. So, I found this post: http://forums.sandisk.com/sansa/board/message?board.id=clip&message.id=18501&query.id=12003#M18501 and formatted with Windows Media Player. (I've now formatted every way possible, I think.) Of course, we fixed it. Problem files synchronized immediately, but then almost all my other files could not synchronize with the most recent error.

    A. in addition, the playlist does not work. Even if I get the playlist on the device, there is no songs in there. Songs/podcasts are only available through other classifications.

    B. After you have installed the program to update the firmware, there is now a remnant TSR who dies when I plug my video. "Universal firmware updater for Sandisk Sansa MP3 players has stopped working". Can I disable or uninstall this program, but it's just another problem. I am running Vista with all latest patches.

    Any help? You will be able to synchronize all files and playlists will work well.

    AHA! I think that I thought about it. I deleted all files in the Cache files of Player\Transcoded of AppData\Local\Microsoft\Media and now everything is sync again.

    He always does this weird thing once again. When the screen is black and I'm listening to something, if I hit the ring of command, as for example, hit the screen do not necessarily come back. I guess I should start another thread for this. It seems that there are different features that work better or worse according to the USB mode. I didn't know there was such thing before this problem.
