    I think i can fix ur drive.

    do a

    START>RUN type in regedit

    Here is the full how to from MICROSOFT

    Step 1: Start Registry Editor

    Start Registry Editor.

    Step 2: Delete the UpperFilters registry entry

    1. In Registry Editor, expand My Computer, and then expand HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE.

    2. Expand SYSTEM, and then expand CurrentControlSet.

    3. Expand Control, and then expand Class.

    4. Under Class, click {4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}.

    5. In the details pane of Registry Editor, on the right side, click UpperFilters.

    Note You may also see an UpperFilters.bak registry entry. You do not have to remove that entry. Click UpperFilters only.

    * If you see the UpperFilters registry entry in the details pane of Registry Editor, go to step 6.

    * If you do not see the UpperFilters registry entry, you still might have to remove the LowerFilters registry entry. To do this, go to "Step 3: Delete the LowerFilters registry entry."

    6. On the Edit menu, click Delete.

    7. Click Yes when you receive the following message:

    Are you sure you want to delete this value?

    The UpperFilters registry entry is removed.

    Step 3: Delete the LowerFilters registry entry

    1. In the details pane of Registry Editor, on the right side, click LowerFilters.

    Note You might see a LowerFilters.bak registry entry. You do not have to remove that entry. Click LowerFilters only.

    If you do not see the LowerFilters registry entry, unfortunately this content is unable to help you any more. Go to the "Next Steps" section for information about how you can find more solutions or more help on the Microsoft Web site.

    2. On the Edit menu, click Delete.

    3. Click Yes when you receive the following message:

    Are you sure you want to delete this value?

    The LowerFilters registry entry is removed.

    4. Exit Registry Editor.

    Step 4: Restart your computer

    Restart your computer. After you have done this, try to access the CD or DVD drive. If you can access the CD or DVD drive, and if you do not receive an error message, the problem is resolved. You can reinstall your CD or DVD writing or recording software.

    somewhere on the screen it should have MINOR instructions....it will say like +/- changes values or up/down or F5/F6 or something like that. LOL its always different between different BOIS'. but then hit ESC to exit...it may ask if you want to save and exit...yes.... :rolleyes:

    If it says DO YOU WANT TO EXIT WITHOUT SAVING say NO!!! you may have to move all the way down to the last OPTION/TAB and select SAVE & EXIT or something like that.

    If you cant figure it out, just exit without saving and let me know :)

    I dont really see anything TOO out of the norm...

    Error 2/21/2009 1:11:19 disk None 7 N/A SAM

    what does that disk error say? im doubting that had anything to do with it....

    OH, and you asked about how to check the BIOS...whenever you restart the computer, the first screen u see as it is coming up is the BIOS screen (probably says like TOSHIBA or something like that) at that screen, it should say somewhere

    HIT F2 FOR SETUP or something like that. May be a different key...hit the key it says to hit for setup and it will bring up the BIOS. HOPEFULLY the clock is on the first page and you can just check it and change it there...if it isnt...well, just let me know if it isnt lol

    the more I think about it...if your battery was bad, it would reset back to a DEFAULT TIME AND DATE each time you shut off the machine...this isnt the same...hmm

    Try wat I said above and see if that helps.... If that doesnt work, it could be 3rd party software or MAL...NAAH couldnt be! :rolleyes:

    ALSO, check the event viewer ( do a START>RUN and type eventvwr )

    look back on the SYSTEM and APPLICATION tabs and see if anything ODD is happening

    that should keep you busy :)

    AH laptop :rolleyes: they can be easier or harder to repalce batteries (I was thinking Desktop :) )

    So the BIOS was wrong? keep checking it from time to time and see if resetting it helped...

    Is that time zone YOUR time zone? if not, change it to the right one just for the sake of doing it :)

    That time that it says it was last synced on successfully....is that around the last time that the date changed? You may try disabling this feature (auto sync) just to try to see if it is grabbing incorrect info...just an idea :)
