I am using the following code to write the Date Modified time of a Directory to a label

```
string selectedPath = comboBox1.SelectedItem.ToString();
DateTime lastdate = Directory.GetLastWriteTime(selectedPath);
datemodified.Text = lastdate.ToString();

```

It returns the date 12/31/1600 7:00:00 PM which I have no clue where it is getting that date from. Can anyone help me understand why it is returning that date and how I can fix it? I'm using .NET 3.5
