Windows Vista reset time
I had my router and the network off to bad weather. I run a mono wall and netgear WNDR3400, router. I reactivate them after the storm passes and some how my computer resets to 20 July 2002. My CMOS battery is correct setting of ideas how this could have happened. I ran a virus scan and malware bytes before I Shutdown. I was running a clock as well AS my local time clock. or when I rebooted after correction of the time. Is it possible that I could check as re stop tonight and see if it happens after a night of being disconnected? If it does not again what could have caused there may be a problem?
I checked it sews for only made a time may have been he got the form of wrong time my new router when it has been powered up again, I will post if this happens. Right now it works fine. And no program of time 3d.

Error installation software device driver for removable devices in Windows Vista x 64
I have Windows Vista x 64 installed on my PC and nVidia Forceware motherboard and graphic cards.
When I plug in any removable drive into my USB 2.0 port, Windows starts the installation of the device driver software and then sees it as an unknown device. The dialog where he asks me if I want to 'locate and install driver software', 'Ask Me later' or 'don't show this message for this device.
I select the recommended option: "locate and install driver software.
I click 'Continue' when Windows asks me permission to continue.
Then, when the execution of the installer of the software in the bottom right of my screen, the installation of driver software for device, it shows "unidentified device failed.
Then another window pops up saying this:
"Found New Hardware - device unknown".
Windows encountered a problem installing the software driver for your device
Windows found driver software for your device but encountered an error trying to install it.
Kodak
An error occurred during the installation of the device:
The driver for this device is missing a necessary entry. Maybe it's because the file INF was written for Windows 95 or later. Contact your hardware vendor.
If you know the manufacturer of your device, you can visit their website and check the support section for driver software. »
That's what he does when I'm trying to connect my Kodak Easyshare M550 digital camera. I would go ahead and contact Kodak, but the problem seems to extend to ANY removable device on my computer.
For example, I have a Lexar Flashdrive. When I plug it into my USB 2.0 port, it Windows says the following:
"Windows needs to install driver software for your USB Flash Drive", etc...
'Install the device driver software', 'USB Flash Drive search Windows Update'...
Then a window opens asking me to "insert the disk that came with your USB key. Problem is that no driver disk not supplied with the hardware that Windows Vista is supposed to come with the drivers. I know this because the camera and usb flash drive worked very well until I reinstalled Windows Vista on my new hard drive (new installation, because my old hard drive crashed) and I've NEVER had to install device drivers for Windows to recognize it as a removable drive and operate automatically.
Also, I installed Daemon Tools Lite and I had to manually "Update" the device driver to point to the "Windows\INF" folder in my hard drive, after copying the cdrom files needed for the specific subfolders for windows to let the program assign a drive letter for the drive virtual it creates.
I think that perhaps not all device drivers have been installed when I installed Windows Vista, this time. If that's the problem, I don't know how that could happen, nor how to fix it, but I really prefer to find a way to solve this problem without reinstalling Windows Vista again. I don't mind not manually install the drivers as long as someone can show me what files to copy and where to find them on the Windows Vista disk that I bought at Microsoft. I KNOW that Windows HAS come with these drivers.
If anyone knows how I can fix this, please tell me, because it's ridiculous to not be able to use any removable device readers (except for the use of all Flash drives). Thanks in advance.
I know it can be frustrating to solve problems.

First of all you do not state if you tried to see if there was a setting in bios disabled USB ports during the startup. Or how the bios was set to install devices automatically. If you check your manual site or the motherboard manufacturer
It will tell you which key to press. And where your USB ports are on or off. Some systems do not have to turn on or off.

(C) what version where do you use? SP1? or gold?
(D) USB hubs may cause problems just be hubs. Power connected?

Hello
I'm stuck on the screen on my computer for my Windows Vista Home Premium 64-bit edition. The password to the user account has been lost, and now I am unable to access my computer. I don't have a created password reset disk so I can't reset the password. I searched these forums and seems the most effective way is to run a system restore to a time where I did have a password for my account. Fortunately for me, I did an automatic update of Windows that created a system restore point literally moments before I put the password, so I should be able to get access to my computer once I figured out how to get system restore to work. The advice I found on other forums do not seem to work, because I'm in my Windows vista operating system disc, but no screen is coming up with 'Repair your computer', which indicate the steps happen. I need assistance to find another way to run the system restore on boot menus/Vista/DVD CD. Thank you.Go to Bestbuy or other PC shop. They can fix it for you. (Could I have so I am not allowed to post these alternative instructions.)

Windows Vista will not synchronize with internet time server
I am running Windows Vista Business SP2 and Norton Internet Security on a Lenovo T61. All updates for Windows, Norton and Lenovo have been applied. When I try to synchronize with a time server Internet, I get the error message ' year error occurred while synchronizing with time.windows.com "I tried each of the other servers listed time and still get the same error message. I spent reviewing the configuration of the firewall in time of Norton Internet Security and S32 and port 123 are enabled. I tried to synchronize with the two Norton Internet Security Firewall on and outside, with the same results. I have internet google and looked for a solution of Microsoft. After reading all the posts relating, I tried the following:
running administrative invite
net stop w32time
w32tm /unregister
w32rm /register
net start w32time
Each performed positively.
This has not solved the problem. I then ran:
w32tm/config /update
This is performed in a positive way.
This has not solved the problem. I then ran:
w32tm/Resync /rediscover
He responded with "the computer did not resync because no time data was available"
I then ran:
w32tm/query/status
He responded with "last successful synchronization time: not specified.
The local Group Policy Editor reads for providers of Service/Computer Configuration/Windows Administrative Templates/time/system time
Configure Windows NTP Client not configured
Enable Windows NTP Client not configured
Enable Windows NTP server not configured
In summary, it seems that my computer has never synchronized with an Internet server time.
If you need additional information, please provide specific instructions on how to get it and I will provide.
From time to time, I checked to see if I resync of internet time.
Out of the Blues started windows resynchronize.
The only change I can think is that AT & T reset head of communications AT & T defaults shortly before he started work. This tends to confirm my opinion that it was a problem of communication.

Is it useful to reset my Windows Vista Home Premium?
He is three years old (he got the summer three years ago) and it is moderately-heavily used, as in, it is used every day, and there are many programs and files downloaded and installed I do not use. Through my computer and delete all of these files would take much more for a long time that simply reset and its replacement by backups.
My computer is idle or, at least I think, however, I was maybe just more patient three years ago.In addition, please don't suggest you get a new computer, or to download a program to uninstall other programs for me, because my computer spastic and these programs tend to crash.Ah, Yes, that's another question. Some programs that I want to use more (Skype, Apple Software Update, RegClean, etc.) crash as soon as I opened the, and there seems not to be an error with the program, because I posted on other forums vain.So, is it useful to reset my computer? I can do that easily, it will take little effort. Basically, I want to say it's worth it, is, she will fix these issues, such as the opening of the program slowly and crashes random application?
