Start . . . Run . . . eventvwr.msc Click on System in the left pane and scour the items which show in the right pane, at about the time one of these mysterious changes took place, for any that look connected with your issue. Double clicking in the item usually reveals some further information. I'm afraid this may be a little tedious as there are lots off system events in normal usage - you might start with those with red crosses (the most severe) and go on to the warnings (yellow triangles).
