jadinolf 131 Posted August 4, 2017 Share Posted August 4, 2017 (edited) I'm getting the message that my virus signature is out of date and then a message that it isn't. No idea how to stop the out of date message. Yes, I have rebooted. Thanks I must explain that when it cranked up this morning it showed the date as 9/1/2012. I has been corrected but that information doesn't change. Edited August 4, 2017 by jadinolf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jadinolf 131 Posted August 4, 2017 Author Share Posted August 4, 2017 BIOS is correct time. I'm going to install/reinstall and also check the CR2032 Cell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Problem I never encountered before. Thanks for your posts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seen problems with failing updates, but never one where the the date has caused a problem. Have you updated your bios or ran any hardware monitoring apps recently that could have changed the system date & time. Just that the 301 day trial was something that would indicate that the system date and time had been set back and somehow deactivated the program itself. Hopefully you won't have any problems again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did not document the problem but I have a feeling it will happen again and I will write down everything that appears on the screen and then go to Google. It is something that I have never seen before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jadinolf 131 Posted August 4, 2017 Author Share Posted August 4, 2017 One thing I forgot to mention- I would NEVER update my BIOS. I can't be trusted doing it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jadinolf 131 Posted August 5, 2017 Author Share Posted August 5, 2017 I am seated at the problematic computer as I type this. The problem was the CR2032 battery. I have replaced it and now I will play with the computer before I button it up. It sure was dusty but it's my only computer that is not easy to get to.

TomFace 539 Posted August 5, 2017 Share Posted August 5, 2017 With all my PCs (all 3 of them) over the years, I have never replaced a battery. Of course, now that I said that, guess what will most likely happen.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a lot of those batteries because i use them in other equipment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Built pc's for 30 years and quality control was never good when it came to battery's in new motherboards late 80's and early 90's. You could buy a new motherboard and the battery was dead before you even got to build the system. Glad you got it sorted tho @jadinolf as the wrong system date and time can cause a lot of different headaches Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should have just pulled the computer out and replace the battery. For the record, the batteries I have were 18 cents U.S. You can spend USD $4 if you are so inclined.

It's a problem you cant recognise until you experience it first hand yourself and not surprising you lost a lot of time on it.

Not really a big deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
