Also, check the setting here: Region -> Administrative -> local. If the issue still persists, I suppose that it can be caused by 3<sup>rd</sup> part programs or virus. Please test the issue in Clean boot mode and safe mode and let me the results: How to perform a clean boot to troubleshoot a problem in Windows 8, Windows 7, or Windows Vista http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929135 If the issue doesn’t appear, you can determine which one can be the cause by using dichotomy in MSconfig. Checking on half of Non-Microsoft service and restart, determining which half of the services cause the issue and repeating to check half of the problematic half services.
