Forgive me if this is accidentally double posted. I have an AT&T 6300 PC in the laboratory where I work on power up the diagnostics indicate there is a "functioning" real time clock present. However after setting the date and time with the DOS commands, the next boot will redefault these values to time 00:00:00 and date Jan 1, 1980. I have look at the motherboard and tested the battery and it has the corret voltage level. Can anyone please help me understand this problem and possibly fix it. In the meantime I am using the brute force method of entering the date and time on each boot. Please E-Mail any comments instead of posting them. Thanks for any cooperation. KDL
