It sounds like the clock chip died. I'd take it back and have the dealer look at the system.

Calling all MacHackers! Have I got a Strange one for you! I seem to have done something to my Mac IIcx that I've never heard or seen been before. Normally, when you call up the General cdev and look at the clock it ticks along just fine. Well, for some reason, mine's frozen. Consequently, Superclock! doesn't work any more. And I can't get SoftPC 1.3 to run any more either (that's even after reinstalling it from the master disks). I tried resetting the parameter ram (Cmd-option-Shift-Control Panel) and it just beeps at me and doesn't seem to do anything at all. Now, I run 4,328 INITs (or so it seems), but I've de-installed ALL my INITs (using INIT/cdev) and it still doesn't change anything. I've booted off a virgin 6.0.3 disk and it too doesn't work. Has ANYBODY out there ever heard of this? It looks as if somethings gone in and stepped all over my ROMs, but you can't do that with READ ONLY memory (or so the name implies). I would be most grateful for ANY suggestions/hints/comments in this regard.
