Hello.

I followed the above steps on an HP rp5700 desktop. Now the computer time and date is set back to 2000. I have entered setup to change date and time. However, the date and time does not change as I navigate date and time…. no change at all. I have changed this before on other rp5700 desktops but this just wont change.

Someone out there HELP.

Regards.

Turk.

I did this for my HP rp5700 desktop, but it did not remedy my situation of after start-up, my icons do not show up. Just a blue windows logo screen. The start button is visible, along with the date/time, but nothing else. Let it sit overnight and the same thing is shown the next morning. Is this Windows Explorer related? If so, what can I do to fix it?
