When I boot up the date goes back to 2005. This has affected the Norton Antivirus program. I notice that it was lost and message to renew appeared. Then I have to reset it by: (1) going to the bios setting and reset it. or (2) right click on the date in bottom left hand corner and reset it. Does this date reversal meand a CMOS battery needs replacing?

SOURCE: Problem with my BIOS CMOS Setting

Its due to your default CMOS setup does not match with your CPU configuration especially with CPU speed.

  1. To fixed the above problem goto BIOS and navigate settings of CPU, speed etc. Set the speed with the proper value as per manual. And save the settings.
  2. Infuture when you will load default, at that time also set the CPU settings.
  • The CMOS battery might not be connected properly or may be its not producing enough power as per needed by board. So have a look with another battery. Also clean the connection point of the CMOS battery.

Good Luck
Iqbal

SOURCE: unable to save date in m/b bios

make sure your using new cmos battery not yet been use and then set date in your bios and save it after finish.
still doesn't work?
try update your cmos that migth be the problem note! remember always take care of the risk on updating flashing cmos on power interuption never power off if still flashing. or if you update and flush it before it might be a bad flash of your cmos try bring it up to early state or restore your backup cmos firmware or download it to its main manufacture

SOURCE: black screen on boot on biostar mcp6p m2+

That board has a built in video card if I have the right info. If you are using an external video ie plug in card then you need to make sure the onboard video is disabled or that the plug in card is designated as the main video card. Not doing either of those will cause the black screen.

SOURCE: My system cannot continue on its rebooting

reset bios to default settings or factory settings.

Also may try moving the clear bios jumper pin which should be located near the battery.

Why is my Norton out of date even though I purchased the renewal?

Hi there,

The issue is because you have not activated your Norton program with the renewal code or the product key. To activate, open your Norton program and click on the "renew" or "subscribe" button on the bottom of the product.

Enter the renewal code or the product key that you have and click on the yellow arrow button next to it to activate your program.


Regards,
muhaim

Try uninstall norton antivirus and load avira antivirus, run word program and check whether an error will come out. If no error, your antivirus might be corrupted and somehow affects your application. If error still occurs after replacing norton, uninstall office program and reinstall again.

I cannot tell if my norton security system is operational, because there is confusion about the subscritption renewal

go to your online norton account and check the renewal date.

if the norton tray icon is green, it's active. if red, or black, it may not be. also, when the norton runs out, the windows warning will come up saying the system may not be protected due to no anti-virus.

note: there are many free a/v and anti-spyware programs available so you need not pay for anything. www.downloads.com

Message says my subscription has expired? I purchased Internet Security from Nortons on 12/7/07 why has it expired? It appars I am no longer protected and do not understand why this is.

Most of the Norton antivirus comes with one year subscription. date u mentioned here seems like more then 1 year old. That's why it says expired
If you dont want to spend any more money on antivirus then uninstall this one and download AVG from this site. this is really good antivirus for free and good for ever.

Anti virus updates

The program you're using is out of date and if you haven't renewed the Norton 2004 since then, you will have to purchase a new version or updates to work.

Hi,
Sometimes when reinstalling Norton, or just renewing the license, it uses some of the data from the previous installation.

Check the Symantec website for specific problem first, you are not the first guaranteed!

The best and assured method is to download the Norton Removal Tool and remove all products, just uninstalling won't do it. Then reinstall (you may find you have another years subscription!). Be sure to save your license information before total removal.

A few notes:
Norton is the best, the 400 lb gorilla on the block. Some will try to convince you otherwise. I wont enumerate the reasons, but it does what it is supposed to, and many, many users use it successfully.
Don't renew, buy new! There is usually not a big cost difference between the renewal, and the latest program. You don't gain much in effectiveness but you do get the latest user interface and program improvements.
