[comp.sys.ibm.pc] Olivetti clock problem

iiit-ih@cybaswan.UUCP (Ivan Izikowitz) (07/19/89)

Hello netlanders,

I wondrer if anybody could help me with a problem I have with my
Olivetti M24. I bought the machine at a time when DOS 2.1 was curretnt
and have recently upgraded to a (non-Olivetti) version 3.21. I have
a problem in that the DOS cannot find the hardware clock and thus  set
the software clock.

Has anybody got a "fix" for this - ie. a routine to put in my autoexec
file - or alternatively, could somebody tell me which clock chip is used
and where to find it so that I can possibly write something myself. 

Thanks in advance for any assistance.
