Check the original post -- the registry key holding the data is described there.

Dunno why yours is reporting something different.  What OS are you running?  Vista?

If you want, fire up rededit.exe and look at the InstallDate key.  What's it say?

This is my work PC, I try to take care of this machine.
Windows Install Date Thingie: I made it!

Which by my standard is impressive, because my home machine gets trashed regularly.

Ralf Maximus:
Holy mother of dog!  That's impressive.  Beats my mail server (see attached).

And what on earth were you doing installing Windows at 6 in the morning?  Unless you were up all night trashing it, that's just unnatural...

f0dder:
Ralf, how are you retrieving uptime?
