P4B533-E Date Problem
Not sure if this is a MB problem or a WinXP problem, but I suspect the MB.
The problem is that when booting this system (on a 3-client LAN) on 28 July, all kinds of problems were experienced--no Internet connection, couldn't talk to the router, some programs would not work, and so on. I have conducted 2 days of experimentation so far like replacing the boot drive, restoring recent drive images, re-flashing the BIOS, re-installing LAN "card" drivers, and probably a bunch of other troubleshooting procedures I have since fogotten. As long as the date on this system is set at greater than 27 July, it cannot access the Internet through the router/DSL modem, and the other problems mentioned above are experienced. Funny thing is that this system can communicate with the other clients on the LAN. I completely redid the router-client setup from scratch and that did not correct the problem with this system. The other clients are working perfectly with Internet connection and no problems. The wierd thing is that if I change the system date in Windows or in the BIOS setup back to 27 July or earlier, the system works fine. When I change the date back to a date greater than 27 July, the problems return. Appreciate any ideas, 'cause I'm about to replace the whole stinkin' system and the router if I can't find the cause of this problem soon. Thanks, Larry ================ Three client LAN This particular system is: ASUS P4B533-E MB (BIOS 1014e--latest non-beta BIOS) 2.4 GHz P4 CPU 1 GB memory 2 large HD's On-board Intel PRO/100 VE Ethernet LinkSys BEFSR41 Router (using embedded DHCP) 1.5 mbps DSL |

Forgot to mention that I checked the system with the latest (28 July) NAV
def files, and also with AntiVir--nothing found. Checked for spyware using Pest Patrol and Ad-Aware. PP found one item called Actual Spy--removed that. Ad-Aware found an item called WEBHANCER which I removed. This had no effect on the problem. "Larry Roberts" wrote in message nk.net...

Here's the culprit. Wasn't a MB problem after all.
+++++++++++++++++ Java Runtime Environment expiration Problem Summary In order for PowerChute Business Edition to remain functional, users must upgrade to any version of 7.x. Due to expiration of the Sun Java Runtime Environment certificate, versions 6.x of PowerChute Business Edition will cease to operate normally as of July 27, 2005. Failure to upgrade will result in PowerChute Business Edition no longer providing monitoring and graceful shutdown of your system. Impact Customers running PowerChute Business Edition 6.x after July 27, 2005 will have the following experience: When a power event occurs, such as a power failure, PowerChute Business Edition will perform a graceful shutdown. When power is restored, the UPS will reboot and the Operating System will be restored. At this juncture, the PowerChute Business Edition service will no longer provide monitoring and graceful shutdown of your system. Users must upgrade to PowerChute Business Edition 7.x.
