HELP! My computer's being a ****!

[The Alchemist]

For the last few months my cpu has been giving me the most annoying of problems. Somehow when we had a power outage where I live the time on my computer changed. Now the time changing doesn't sound like much but for some reason my security certificate has now become invalid making it impossible to get on sites like Facebook, Twitter and even parts of my University's Blackboard. I would change it but I don't have administrative authorization on my cpu (the ******* who gave it to me left himself administrator and I've lost contact with him); what can I do to fix this problem?

[Kirikoe]

have u tried wiping the computer and setting it to factory settings ?

the only problem with this is that u will lose everything u have on your computer and will have to re download everything u want back on there

[Anduril]

Okay first calm down

Don't be a douche I'm serious. Anyone else spam this thread and you will be reported. I haven't the patience for childish games atm.

1) Wipeout the computer
2) buy a new cpu
3) or just get a new computer
i'm pc tech so i'll try to help you if i can

[Anakin Skywalker]

there is a simple solution for this

try to change the time from BIOS settings

going to BIOS settings is different for different computer make and model
anyway the most common way is pressing F12 or F2 or F8 when the computer boots up
then you can change the date and time settings in there
hope it helps

So what I don't understand is if the problem is caused by the OS or the Hardware .-.
I'm no expert here but I can't find anything (that I understand) when I google your problem...
what is your Operating System?

wish could have helped you

Spam is bad for you.

Back to topic, try to set the factory settings or reboot back to update before the latest one. In worst case reinstall windows.

I've explained it the best way I know how. Whenever I try to get on certain sites like yahoo A screen pops up saying my security certificate for my cpu is invalid.
I can't even check my google email account because it simply won't come up.
I don't have administrative authority on my cpu because the person I got the cpu from left himself as the administrator and I don't have the password to override this so I'm stuck.

[Anakin Skywalker]

LOL! I have no idea what you're talking about, computer speak is just foreign to me.

Download a hiren boot image if you have any access to internet and load it to a cd or usb drive and youll be able to remove the password for the admin so you would have full control over your computer

Try this one..

dont get sad

here is the sol.-
1. go 2 the date and time setting.

2. Adjust date and time ,not manually but by sync. it with internet time of ur gmt...look carefully u will find the option there.

3. once done just restart ur pc and see if the date prob. is solved as this is the main cause of ur latter problem.

4. Try running the sites after that...if problem persist then wait for some hr. and try again otherwise format ur windows drive..

[Anakin Skywalker]

i'm 100% sure that his OS is not corrupted

this is what i understand from his OP ....he didn't provide much info to begin with so i speculated some of this

-his time and date is changed due some power outage
-he cant open webpages like facebook/gmail etc that require ssl security certificate
-the error shown in the browser is "security certificate not right" or sumthing like that

if this is the only problem he has what i said should take care of it

try this also ....i didn't think of it initially but it might work too (but if autosync with internet time server is not enabled then it will also require admin password i think but not sure)
