[comp.sys.ibm.pc] PC/AT knock-off TOD clock/hard disk controller conflict

nomad@verdix.com (Lee Damon) (10/16/88)

I have a DTK PC/AT and a WD1002-27x (8 bit) RLL harddisk controller. It
seems that the BIOS in the AT ins't quite as IBM compat. as they claim.
It reads the hardware clock and then sets the diskcontroller address in
the wrong order, so my DOS clock is mis-set (it knows what hour it
is, and how many seconds into the curent minute it is, but on boot tells
DOS that it is always 00 minutes).

I am looking for a program that reads the hardware clock and sets the DOS
clock. I don't have the money to buy a new controller card.

Please reply by mail as I don't read this newsgroup.
