[CTS] Re: Question

There's more...

My computer continues to act up... it'll boot up, get to the desk top (showing 
desktop picture and icons) and then it takes *forever* to even play the sign on 
wav, then another 2 minutes for all of my stuff to become available for me to 
even use.  Including my modem and virus software.

I went to help and was going to create a restore point and that is when I found 
even more  problems... 

1.  No restore points available.. 
2.  Year in the restore screen said 2099 
3.  Looked at my system tray clock and it said 7089 (!!! WOW !!!)

So I *finally* got the date to change back to 2003 on my system tray clock and 
rebooted, went into the Bios and the date and time are correct in there.  When 
the computer came back up, (still very slow) I went to the restore point screen 
again and it says: "There are currently no restore points available" and it 
won't let me click on any other date nor will it allow me to back up to the 
previous month.. it's just like it never existed.  My system restore is set to 
create restore points.

One other thing.. after my computer has been up and running for a few minutes, 
I get a script error.  It has to do with my Starband Modem (I don't have the 
exact script error in front of me, so I can't quote it verbatim.. I'll relay it 
if it happens again).  But basically, it says the standard "an error has 
occurred with the script on this page, do you want to continue running this 
script.." (or close to that), the area where the script error is happening, 
then gives me a yes or no choice.  I've chosen "yes".. but I'm not sure what it 
really means.

Thoughts?

Hammers?

Open windows for which to throw things from?

Was having a problem with my computer this morning when I was working on some 
really high end and intense graphics.. I thought it was just that I needed a 
reboot, the system was a little slow and then finally it locked up. 

On resetting the machine, it went through the regular scan that happens when 
you don't shut down the way Billy likes you to, and during the scan it went 
through almost *everything* on my C: drive and listed next to each entry was 
the following error: "Invalid Time Stamp".

Everything *seems* to be working okay now, but I'm curious as to what that 
means and what causes it.  Any thoughts?
