If you look up a bad site on a k12 loaner computer will you get in trouble?

THat rather depends - on whether they scrutinise the computer when they get it back. The history log is date and time-stamped. If they discover illicit material - it will be traced to when the computer was used. That will tell them who had it in their possession at the time !

How do you adjust the system time and date?

To set the system time and date on a PC you need to find the current time and date on the task bar. This is usually located on the bottom of your screen. If you look to the bottom right hand corner you should see the current date and time. Right click on the date and time on the task bar and you should have a window pop up with a list of choices to click on, the one you are looking for is labeled Adjust/Date and Time. Left click on the Adjust/Date and Time link and a new window should open up. The new window will have 3 tabs across the top, the first tab is the one that you want to use. You should see a clock and a button that says Change Date and Time. Click that button and another window will open with an image of a clock and a calender. (There is also another button below this one that says Change Time Zone, if you need to change that as well.) Click on the date you want to use on the calendar, and below the clock you will see the time listed. Click in the box that shows the hours and minutes and use the up and down arrows to adjust the tnumbers to the time you want the computer to be set to. If the calendar is not set to the correct month you can use the arrows at the top of the calendar to go back or forward to the month and year you need. After you have set the date and time you need, just click the OK button at the bottom of the window and you should be good to go. If you are noticing that the date and time on your computer is constantly wrong each time you start up your computer this could be an indicator that the internal battery on the motherboard is going bad. Each computer has a small internal battery, (looks sort of like a large watch battery), that is used to keep the date and time current on your computer when you have turned off the power. Hope this answered your question. Mike
