hi, i had to reset the bois on my mobo a couple of days ago and all went well until i tried to receive updates from windows. help for the issue said i needed to correct the time and synchronise with a server. i tried a couple of times to synchronise with no success, just reports of error.

my internet works fine but ive also found that windows messenger will not connect either.. any help?

thanks!

I've had this happen several times, it usually happens because
after to cmos reset you have forgotten to update the time and
date.

Fix that up in your OS and you should be fine.

Cheers

Forget Update from windows.....just use you watch and a
calender date, set your timezone and your done.

Set it manually in other words ie click on the time in the rhs
corner and then click on change date and time settings.

Then do your updates afterwards once you set that up
manually.
