Invalid system-time?

Everytime I click to run the installed F.E.A.R. demo, I get this:
'Invalid system-time detected. Please check and correct your local system--time setting.'
So I can't get it to start. System time? My clock on my taskbar is all correct. Or does it mean something else?

hardware clock can be different than software (microsoft XP uses ntp updates)
check the bios time, see if it's accessible or able to sync with the software clock.

could be time zone mismatch between hardware/windows.
or maybe that nonsensical waste of time footer is the problem.

Just went into my BIOS. System time and date are all correct, same as I'm seeing on the taskbar. What next?

un-install demo reboot run a registry cleaner program

reboot
re-install
i have terrain mapping software and earth science mapping software "Geosoft " that as soon as i change the time the software is crippled ,it's a protection scheme stopping illegal usage .
i assume the demo can be played for only a certain period of time and changing the time & date may be a way to keep playing it .
