ARRRGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!
When I boot up, it sez:
Battery Backed clock not found
SetClock does the same thing... I've only had my A2000 fer 3 months, and
this happens! (Right in the middle of a demo a friend of mine, too --- he's
a convert, however. { Never stood a chance. ;-) } )
Anyway, any help would be welcome, be it hardware or software (though I am
laothed to take Amy apart and look into her innards...)

Apparently something in the clock gets set to a value that makes SETCLOCK think that the clock doesn't exist anymore. Don't ask why, just remember that CBM did it first. :-) Michael Dinn MDINN@DALAC

Try 'setclock reset' on wb 1.3.2, this should solve the problem. -- -------------------------------------------------------------- Ken Farinsky -- CATS Commodore Business Machines PHONE 215-431-9421 UUCP ...{uunet,rutgers}!cbmvax!ken --------------------------------------------------------------
