System date problems

When installing Windows NT 4.0 or Windows 2000, you are asked to set the system date format. Most admins leave it in the standard mm/dd/yy format. However, many applications use the default system date when they are run without a user logged on to the local console, and problems can arise when an application expects a different date format. You'll need to keep that in mind when you select the system date format because, once installed, the default date format is coded into the kernel and is not changeable.
