Time and Date not correct

Hi to all.
Does anybody know how to save your cmos settings to a floppy or CD?
Is there a program that can assist with saving the cmos settings to floppy or CD?
Is there anyway to perform saving the cmos settings within the BIOS to floppy or CD?
I really don't want to go into the BIOS and write down all that info.
I have an HP Pavilion 553w that is 7 1/2 years old, running windows xp home edition version 2002 sp3, 2 gbs of ram, AMD athlon(tm)XP 2100+ 1.73 GHZ, bios version/date Phoenix Techologies, LTD AM35308, 10/07/2002 (Phoenix-AwardBIOS CMOS Setup Utility) SMBIOS 2.3, BIOS Core Version V6.0, BIOS Revision 3.08 10/7/2002.
I know my computer is ancient and I probably should have updated my BIOS, as it is out of date.
Also, after starting up my computer I noticed my time and date is not correct and as of lately have to adjust the time and date to the correct time and date.
I did some research and came across some possible reasons:
1. RTC battery (CMOS battery) may need reseating on motherboard.
2. The battery has become corrupt.
3. BIOS version may be out of date.
My computer is really taking longer than usual to startup and images of icons take longer to display, which may be a sign of the symptoms I listed above.
My computer doesn't have any malware whatsoever, clean as can be.
Any help or advise will be truly appreciated.

Jboman,
There is not need to save CMOS settings unless you changed the default BIOS settings.  A bad CMOS battery will not preserve the settings.

  • TS3297 when I press the iTunes button on my ipod touch I get the message 'cannot connect to iTunes store' .  My wifi is working fine, I can connect to safari & you tube, no parental setting in place, and time and date are correct. Can anyone help please?

    When I press the iTunes button on my ipod touch I get the message 'cannot connect to iTunes store' .  My wifi is working fine, I can connect to safari & you tube, no parental setting in place, and time and date are correct. Can anyone help please? I have restored my ipod to factory settings and rest it.

    I also tried moving the date forward by a year and then moving it back to normal and it still doesn't work.  i can't find an automatic update of time zones on my itouch to turn this off.

  • Help - EXIF time and date not working correctly

    I am a long time Lightroom user and am trying out Aperture 2.1. I like it a lot but I just found a serious problem. I'm importing some old photos into my Aperture library, by referencing the files in an existing folder. The time and date for some of the files gets messed up. When I view these files in LR the time and date is fine. When I look at the "date created" in the Finder, the time is also messed up. For a photo shoot I did in Europe, the time for some images has the right date & time when converted to US time, but for some images it has the right date & time but as if it were in the US time zone. The files are all Nikon NEFs.
    Also, when I view the files in the Aperture import dialog box they are in the right order. But when they get imported and I'm looking at them in Aperture they are in the wrong order.

    OK, I give up. Turns out that after one successful import where the dates were ok, subsequent imports have the dates messed up again - whether in Quick or Normal mode. I also tried importing to a new collection, and also tried importing after rebuilding the library (via command-option click in the dock). Still hving this problem.

    Set up time and date is not working, since I changed settings from Saudi Arabia to USA...want time and date from USA?!

    You need to set your location to where you are, not where you might like to be.

  • How do I make the time and date stamp correct for my documents, songs in itunes, etc.

    No matter when I add a song or save a document it says it was added/saved on 1/5/2011. It would be great if somehow I could get back the dates and times that things were added, but I know that may be impossible. I just want a way to have the correct time and date stamp from now on. Finally it wasn't always like this, when I first got the computer everything was correct, I just started noticing it. Additionally my clock is correct, so I don't understand why things aren't saved according to the clock. Thanks in advance

  • Iphone 5c time and date not working right

    hi guys I would really appreciate your help if you have any information or similarities on this.
    I have an iPhone 5c and the date and time are both lacking, I don't know what is wrong and can I fix it? its also messing with my 3g and wifi
    thanks,
    gem.

    This same problem has happened again a few times. Tech support says the problem is the cmos battery and I need to send it in to get it fixed. Well, this is my only laptop so I cannot be without it for a few weeks so I can't do that.
    This is extremely frustrating because this laptop was purchased less than a year ago. Why is this happening? I had my previous Dell laptop for 6 years and never had an issue like this. This is unacceptable to me. If I could still return it, I would have.

  • Why the time and date is not correct when I save a waveform in txt format, using Labview 6.1?

    I am using Labview 6.1 and my operation system is Windows 98. The date/time properties is configured in the Windows (time and date in the control panel is correct). I generated a waveform using Basic Function Generator.vi and saved this using the Export Waveforms to Spreadsheet File.vi. When I opened this file the date and time was wrong. Only the delta t was correct and it did not show the date neither the time, only a float number. How can I adjust the correct time?

    Actually, the date/time is correct, it is expressed as seconds since January 01, 1904.
    In order to print the string version of the date/time from your file, you will need to write a utility that converts the date/time to a string or series of strings in whatever format you wish. This can be done by reading the first line (I assume that is the line with the time on it), formatting the date/time into a string, and writing over this information in the file.
    The waveform VIs were meant to be used internally to read and write waveform data. Any use beyond that should require you to add formatting and other information/data as necessary.

  • When I did 7.1 update on iPhone five my reminders no longer works correctly it automatically erases the time and date that I requested

    Can somebody tell me why my reminders no longer work correctly on 7.1 update on iPhone five every time I post a reminder it would delete the time and date of the reminder and my reminders do not go off.

    Remove Office 2008 for Mac using Microsoft deinstall procedure. Reinstall Office 2008 for Mac.  If there are updates, apply them. Using Disk Utility, verify/repair permissions on your boot drive.
    Does Office for Mac 2008 now work correctly? If not, you may want to repeat the above first sentence, and then update to Office for Mac 2011, and apply the latest (14.4.8) update which has Yosemite fixes.

  • UC320: how to set (correct) time and date, upload own AA messages, get caller ID, telnet?

    Hello there,
    Just trying out the UC320 I got borrowed from Cisco AT for testing with firmware 2.1.2 (1) localized for Austria.
    The device is connected to the cable modem of my ISP (Kabelsignal) utilizing two FXO ports, getting an IP address from my DHCP being connected to a WS-C2960G-24TD (LAN 1@UC320 connected to Gi0/18@C2960G port macro Cisco Switch enabled).
    Now I would like to try/see the following features:
    - a correct time and date: huh? hwo/where???
    No option to set this right??? No NTP option??? Am I just blind or too stupid to find that option/s?
    - upload own messages for the AA: ok, there are german messages but someone might have a little bit personalized ones - maybe telling callers the company name before asking them to dial the extension if they know it. Making custom messages is not the problem - but how to upload and in which sound/data format?
    - caller ID: my ISP told me that he transfers the caller ID correctly to analoge end devices if caller ID is available and not suppressed. All I can see when a call comes in is which FXO Port is being used by that call. So callback entries on the SPA phone is senseless. Any advise?
    - CLI: You can telnet the device - but which credentials to use to successfully logon? The pre-assigned credentials form Cisco AT are not accepted for logon.
    BTW @Cisco guys: I am also voting for support for the older SPAs (e.g. 942)

    Hi Claus,
    Thanks for giving the UC320W a spin and glad you found the support community!  Let met see if I can help answer your questions....
    Time/Date & NTP -- The UC320W is preconfigured with Cisco's Small Business NTP server.  The preferred method for correct time you will need the UC320W WAN to be connected with Internet access.   If there is no WAN connectivity there is a feature in the 2.1.x firmware where you can set the time on a SPA phone GUI and it will then update the system time.  Alternatively, if you have a LAN side NTP server that is on the same subnet as your Data VLAN subnet, you can use the NTP.pmf file found here:  https://supportforums.cisco.com/docs/DOC-16301
    Upload custom Music on Hold and Auto Attendant prompt files.  We are currently in beta of a new Cloud service.  To participate in the Beta, please send an e-mail to [email protected] requesting MoH/AA Custom files Cloud Beta participation.
    Caller ID on FXO:  Make sure that you have run the impedance matching tool on each of your FXO ports.  For additional information on running the Impedance Matching tool and Caller ID troubleshooting, please see the UC320W Troubleshooting Guide.

  • Time and date settings change when phone is powered down (not shut off)..

    I recently installed the iOS 8 update and immediately noticed that the time and date settings would change when I powered down my iPhone. I did not turn off my phone, only clicked the button to power down or save power. I have tried all the fixes, suggestions, etc., but I am still having issues. In the power down state, I am able to receive phone calls or texts but when I go into my phone, the time and date will be off. It stops from the moment I click the button to power down the phone. Please don't get this confused with turning off the phone completely. This happens when I click the button for power down or power save, however it is described.
    So, how do I fix it? Is the app/software for the clock the problem? Is the battery distribution the problem? For some reason, in power down mode, the clock is not receiving constant power in order to keep accurate time. It stops the moment I click the button.  Any suggestions? fixes, etc. I could try. Apple support techs were absolutely no help what-so-ever.

    This sounds exactly like what is going on with my phone, http://www.idownloadblog.com/2012/10/19/iphone-5-date-time-glitch/

  • In the advanced tab of languages and Region the time and date formats will not change

    For a certian Application I am using I need to change the format of the Time and Date. I had no problems in Mountain Lion. In the advanced tab of languages and Region the time and date formats will not change. I need the date format to read as 01/01/14 and time format to read 13:00. As I said this was easily done in Mountain Lion and all previous Apple OS. I suspect it's an issue with in the OS.

    You're right, it has been that way for a long time. I've never bothered reporting it as a bug since it's simple enough to deal with, but reporting it would be a reasonable thing to do.

  • Setting PC Time and Date as a User, not administrator

    Good Day,
    I'm trying to set the system time and date as a user. Currently running a hardware time server keeping the clocks on the network at the same time. The time is requested from the time sync server at the start of a DAQ run. This is to ensure every computer recording data has the same start time. We are currently changing network permissions and need to make a user run the software. User privelidges don't allow us to change the system time. Is there a way to allow a User to change the system time, or is that left to the Administrator only?
    This function is already implimented on the administrator account and works successfully. Any information would be most appreciated.
    Thanks

    P.C. was mentioned earlier so I will jump in and assume Windows....
    If the system is (made) a member of a Window administrative domain then all this is already in the box, and should be part of a well managed system (I have managed it on a workgroup as well, see the articles below for details). It's one of the things I try to promote as we often have systems switched on for hundreds / thousands of hours and knowing when some guy accidently switched it all off is realy usefull It helps with problems / events that occur outside our control and assists tracking down problems and stops drift / skewing of data.

    The time service is included on Windows XP as well. For NT4 there is / was a toolkit that allows operation from Microsoft.
    Use the command NET TIME /? (on W2K and XP)
    Either way you will come accross problems at the firewall if you want to get to an external time source. Unless you have on of those nifty little black boxes that pick up a radio signal from one of the available time sources.
