Windows Update Issue --

[commodorered]

Heyas, I built my first custom cpu! Everything went great thus far except... trying to update windows. I go to site, get express install, it checks then gets an error: Your computer's date and time appear to be out of sync with an update certificate.

Well, I set date and time to now... have no idea what the update cert time is heh. Sorta want the updates =) If anyone knows how to check or fix this error, please enlighten me =)

Make sure your time zone is correct too, not just the date and time. Is this Windows XP you're trying to update? Was is loaded from a true holographic MS disk or a copy?

After a quick google search it looks like the cause is having the BIOS clock set wrong. Go into BIOS and set it correctly, then try again.

yeah that was it. BIOS. I set time as 2005 not 06. lol. Thanks though totally went over my head, its the new year Commodore come on! *slaps head*
