• My asus computer continues to change time and date

  My ASUS U50F/Windows 7, 64 bit version continues to change time and date. Sometimes he changes a day, sometimes is two or more days to come, but after a few months, it resets the date back to 2009. It seems that a lot of people have the same problem as me. Some suggest it is the BIOS battery, but that's not the problem. I got my computer some time in 2010, and well enough it has been the same since.

  Sometimes, the problem is more common, and sometimes it goes on for a few months without at all what's happening.

  Any input will be greatly appreciated, but please don't say I need to change the BIOS battery, cause it is not the problem.

  Thank you

• Windows 8 time continues to change at random

  Hi all

  I hope someone can help me with the problems I'm having with my laptop. It's brand new, running Windows 8. Everything works well except the clock. The time continues to change and I'm unable to synchronize with the time Internet. Whenever I try to sync, I get the error message "the peer is not resolved."
  I haven't noticed any particular model for how time continues to change, except that if I turn off and turn on again hours later, time has not moved at all of what it was when I turned it off.
  I have searched and tried many things, including instructions in this post: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_8-windows_store/why-windows-store-not-able-to-connect-to-proxy/8c400732-68a1-4875-906a-cae90081dc40. I got the same error message as the user - "no time data is available."
  Any suggestions? Thank you!

• Bridge continues to change the selection of the sort each time that I reopen it the Bridge window... WHY?

  Bridge continues to change the selection of the sort each time that I reopen it the Bridge window... WHY?

  I continue to get "sort by modified date" but each whenever I open it a window that it is for manual selection.

  I searched the preferences but impossible to find something to help.  It didn't used to do this...

  Well, I solved the puzzle myself.

  I noticed that somehow a stray .psd file was stuck in my side bar of the Mac Finder.  Don't ask me how it got there.

  At the beginning I couldn't delete it – until I tried a Mac forum and they suggested I hold down the command key and drag it off... to poof!

  It worked.

  And when I went back to bridge - now the bad behavior disappeared!  And when I close the window Bridge and reopen - the choice to "classify" same home!

  Yay... it's a small step for me, and one small step for computerkind.

• Windows 7 continues to change my time!

  And which is screwed to the top of my watch and record TV.  It is very annoying.

  I saw the problem with Vista (even if the laptop with Vista my husband never does) and the only answer is about changing the boot time and have to do with the BIOS.

  Well, my Dell with Windows 7 will change time even when it is turned on and I checked the BIOS.  The BIOS is the right time.  When I noticed this tonight (there not save survivor), Win7 says it's 03:00.  It was at 21:15.  I shut down the computer and check the BIOS: 21:15.

  I even put this update automatically every 4 hours. How did get to 03:00?

  There will be a fix for this problem in Win7?  I tried to disable automatic synchronization, changing servers.  And for awhile, it remained solid but then again changed!

  Windows 7 there maybe a bad UTC offset setting?  It is perhaps timing hurt because of this.  Check your zone time and (less obvious) your regional settings in Control Panel.

• Windows continues to change user profile folder

  Hi all
   
  I'm facing a real headache. My computer continues to change user profiles folder every restart 2 or 3. For example, my user name is MSF\Bob. The user profile folder has been C:\Document & Settings\Bob. After a restart, Windows create a C:\Document & Settings\Bob.MSF then Bob.MSF.000 and Bob.MSF.001 folder and so on.
   
  Someone has an idea why this is happening and how I can prevent this?
   
  I thank very you much in advance!
   
  Best regards

  Easy question to answer.  You simply have a corrupted profile.

  When Windows detects a corrupted profile, it automatically generates a temporary with names profile as you describe.  Usually, these profiles are deleted when you connect your computer turned off, but not always.  The solution is quite simple.  You just need to recover your corrupt profile.   There are two general approaches.  One is to do a system restore to a point in time before the profile was first damaged.  The other usually involves the creation of a new user and moving profile data on to the new user (you may reset some of your settings).  To do this, choose one of the following articles and follow through:

  "How to recover damaged Windows XP user profile"
    <>http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/555473>

  "How to copy data from a corrupted to a new profile in Windows XP user profile"

  "Windows XP problems if your profile is corrupted"
    <>http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/326688 >

  HTH,
  JW

  PS: Corrupt profiles are almost always accompanied by alteration of the disc as well.  After your recovery, perform a check disk (chkdsk) with the "/ R" or "/ F" option

  First of all, make sure that your clock is set to the correct time zone.

  Right click on the clock.

  Select adjust date and time.

  Then select change time zone.

  If your time zone is correct, you may have a bad CMOS battery but you can get around it by having the system more often with the internet time synchronization.

• my computer continues to change the date and time

  my computer continues to change the date and time even after I set it correctly. I am running windows 7 Professional. Thank you

  Hello

  ·         Since when are you facing this problem?

  ·         Did you the latest changes on the computer before this problem?

  Method 1:

   

   

  The date and time in the BIOS settings may be incorrect.

  Important: Change BIOS (Basic input output system) /(CMOS) complementary metal oxide semiconductor

  Settings can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the configuration of the BIOS/CMOS settings can be solved. Changes to settings are at your own risk.

  You can see this:

  
  Incorrect time is displayed on 64 bit versions of Windows 7 or Windows Server 2008 R2 after upgrading on-site

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/2001086

  Method 2:

   

  I suggest you replace the CMOS battery. If you are not comfortable with that, then I suggest you to contact the manufacturer for assistance.

• Date and time system continues to change each time the system starts.

  I noticed that the time and date of my home PC gets changed every time the system is booted. The default date is set for Jan. 2008, when in fact it should be July 2014.

  Also, my PC became slow death. I use Windows 7 on 1 GB of RAM, 250 GB PC. I used last my home PC 2 years back, but there has always been someone to use it.

  It shows the OS disk to 7 GB of free, when in fact I never installed or anything unnecessary stored on the disk of BONE; Whatever unnecessary programs were there, I uninstalled them recently, keeping just a few essential ones. After uninstalling, it shows to 7 GB of free, when in fact it should be more than that.

  I use Avast anti-virus, which I think is unnecessary, that its not to protect my PC and as other programs, too, is quite dead slow.

  The system is infected by viruses? Manually, I checked the system for viruses and clean the system of all unnecessary and, program files, but I'm still not sure whether it is a virus or a PC problem.

  I am a COMPUTER analyst, and's just done it 2 days that I use my PC at home. I could format my PC, or where applicable be buy Windows 8 with a new processor.

  Please advise.

  Thank you and best regards,

  Ralph Davidson.

  Hello

  You really need a minimum of at least 2GBs of RAM to run Windows 7 well enough.

  As you have only 1 GB of RAM, which seems to be one of the reasons why it is slow.

  Increase the physical RAM or try ReadyBoost:

  http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/using-Windows-ReadyBoost-to-increase-performance/

  Looks like you have some problems.

  Wrong Date/time

  If after you set the Date and time, and then stop and restart your machine and the time returns to the year 2008, and she did this whenever you reset, then restart the PC you have a CMOS battery has failed in the motherboard.

  They cost about $5 and are easy to replace.

  1. Open an elevated command prompt. To do this, click Start, click principally made programs, Accessories, right-click guest, and then click run as administrator. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password, or click allow.

• Windows file - sharing continues to change the IP address

  Access my mac to a Windows files using Windows file sharing option. I usually map a drive as

  
  my-computer-name\share

  and it works very well, though some days it does not work and I need to enter an IP address or a different computer name. When I look in the config of mac, it says

  "Windows users can access your computer at smb://172.xx.xx.xxx.

  or

  "Windows users can access your computer at smb://someothercomputername.

  I have a new IP address every day I log on the office network (dhcp), but I should be able to use my computer name to map a drive.  My merge network setting is NAT.  All this experience?

  Thank you

  Andrew

  In the Windows virtual machine, go to a command prompt and type "ipconfig" (without the quotes).  The IP address of the gateway that is actually the virtual NETWORK card that Fusion creates on the Mac.  Therefore, replace the number with what your gateway 172.x.x.x number.  This gateway number does not change.

  Try Firefox Safe mode to see if the problem goes away. Safe mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most of the modules.

  (If you use it, switch to the default theme).

  • Under Windows, you can open Firefox 4.0 + in Safe Mode holding the key SHIFT key when you open the desktop Firefox or shortcut in the start menu.
  • On Mac, you can open Firefox 4.0 + in Safe Mode holding the key option key when starting Firefox.
  • Under Linux, you can open Firefox 4.0 + with leaving Firefox then go to your Terminal and running Safe Mode: firefox-safe-mode (you may need to specify the installation path of Firefox for example/usr/lib/firefox)
  • Or open the Help menu and click on the restart with the disabled... modules menu item while Firefox is running.

  

  Once you get the pop-up, simply select "" boot mode safe. "

  

  If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to understand that one. To do this, please follow article Troubleshooting extensions, themes and problems of hardware acceleration to resolve common Firefox problems .

  To exit safe mode of Firefox, simply close Firefox and wait a few seconds before you open Firefox for normal use again.

  When find you what is causing your problems, please let us know. It might help others who have the same problem.
