Reading System Date

[mcdhappy80]

I have successfully implemented the Date reading mechanism put the problem with it is that it cannot work in non network environment (without a server).
When there is no server I can read the system date but the same can easily be changed and thus render the date mechanism obsolete.
Can I read some date from somewhere (maybe bios) on local machine which cannot be changed in windows control panel?
Thank You

By the way, if you set the system date/time on the control panel of Windows, it changes the BIOS date/time too.

I don't know of a location you can use, but I did just want to comment on that.

So, if that's the case I have another question to ask:
If I don't have network and server to read the date from, if I cannot read the date from the internet, if there is no point to read the BIOS date because the same can be changed from windows CP, how do I secure my access application that has licence (with expiration date in it) security mechanism?
Thank You
