[comp.sys.amiga] Clocks that Don't run

Hi gang;

	I will only post this one time so it can be read by all.

I have repaired 2 such problems, they were both 8520 ic's

the first one would run but the clock would jump and not keep time.

to see it run the clock with the second hand showing, and watch for it to

jump backwards.  it seems to be a bad register/counter in the 8520.

if you swap the 8520's you may note that the caps lock will flash

strangely a few times, same type of problem- other chip.

I hope this helps you people fix your problems

bye.
