DOES ANYONE KNOW IF THERE IS A WAY TO RETRIEVE DATES/TIMES
OF EVERY COMPUTER ENTRY? SOMEBODY BROKE INTO MY ROOM WHEN
I WAS OUT OF TOWN, AND UNFORTUNATELY I DID NOT HAVE A
PASSWORD PROTECTION. SO, I AM LOOKING TO SEE IF THERE IS A
WAY TO GET A LIST OF DATES/TIMES WHEN AND IF MY COMPUTER
WAS TURNED ON DURING THAT TIME.

PLEASE HELP! THANK YOU, NINA

This may help.
Open the event viewer. (eventvwr.msc from the RUN box)
click system.
On the right, are the dates and times when various system events were
logged.
From that, you should be able to get a rough guide of the PC's
usage.

Sorry. The ASR-33 teletype you're using doesn't do any logging.
 
Hi there,

In win XP pro (If ur using) Go to Control Panel\Administrative
Tools\ Local Security Setting\Local policy\Audit policy.
You will find there an option to audit account logon events. If it is
enabled by administrator than u can find the logon events, otherwise i guess
there is no chance. Either u have some software installed which can create
log of date/times of logons.

These options must be enabled by administrator/user before u
were out, so u can view the record/log of that time.

(This is just a friendly suggestion, not an official advice)

Have a nice time.
