Thanks so much UT and SD. I reset the time and date after the power outage but neglected to notice that it was set to 2003! Problem resolved.

Problem not yet solved. A power outage must never cause that date time clock to change. It implies a battery failure or some other problem exists. A problem easily identified quickly if you don't try to fix it by just swapping parts. Power outage will not change the date on a functional machine.

It's a trade off though. isn't it? She can spend a lot of time and aggravation and money to fix a possible battery problem, or she can spend 30 seconds changing the date back the next time the power goes out. I know what I would choose.
