you can Windows tell to synchronise your PCs time time with an NTP time server of your choice.
For example the german “Physikalisch-Technische Bundesanstalt (PTB)”, which is the responsible authority of the DCF77 (Time) transmitter, operates three of them:
ptbtime1.ptb.de
ptbtime2.ptb.de
ptbtime3.ptb.de
To set these server as timesource use the following command with Administrator rights:
If the the W32time service does not exists, register them

this script repairs and recreates the WMI Repository of a Windows. For example, this occurs sometimes if you clone a Windows machine with an installed SCCM/SMS Client. The typical error in this case is “Failed to open to WMI namespace ‘\\.\root\CCM\SoftwareUpdates\DeploymentAgent’ (8007045b)”
Lasts start. Start a Powershell console as Administrator. Stop all services. Sometimes other services depends on the WMI Service and does not accept a stop request. Therefore you cannot stop the WMI service. TrendMicro Office is such a service. You have to kill them by TaskManager.
# Stop WMI
# Only if SCCM/SMS Client is installed. Stop ccmexec.

booting operating systems, such as linux live systems or Windows PE based installations (Windows Vista,7,8), from a USB Drive or Stick is a nice featured.
Unfortunately each writes it own boot code to the MBR (Master boot record). The boot code of Windows PE 2 and later loads \BOOTMGR, linux is usually loaded with \syslinux.
Well known linux installers like TUXBOOT, the Universal-USB-Installer or UNetBootin do updating the MBR by installing the syslinux bootloader.
