certificate errors after bios flash

[tastegw]

not sure if this is the right section for this question, but here goes.

last night i flashed my bios to provide support for a new cpu chip.
installed the chip and booted up windows.

i am getting certificate errors on all the "secure" sites that i visit and have visited before (paypal, newegg, my bank's site, ect.)

i cant even log into my bank.

i have tried adding these sites to the "trusted" tags, but this does nothing.
i went as far as putting the "trusted" sites security on absolute low risk settings.

but yet, i still get certificate errors, and it prevents me from veiwing the pages correctly or from veiwing them at all.

is there a quick fix for this?

thanks.

What OS are you using? Windows could be having issues itself cause of the CPU change. Windows hardware profile was changed from when it was installed and without it workign properly you can get errors like this.

If you are running XP i would try a Repair install. But other than that try some of the stuff suggested on these sites.
