    Back to the future - beware!


    Hello.

    I have installed w7 on an old socket 478 mainboard. Windows 10 cannot be installed because of the lack of NX bit.
    After everything was installed and updated I found out no program could run. It just failed with or without error message. After checking hard disk and other things I noticed system date was January 31th 6820 - WTF!!!

    I entered BIOS and date was indeed January 31st but year 1980. I manually updated it to 2020 and now everything is in working order. I have now to uninstall/reinstall several things because installation date is year 6820.

    :)
