Re: OT - problems with win 95 clock



I now have the patch and the time was correct when I turned my computer
on. Its only two years old so I would be suprised if the battery was
dead this early when an old 386 my Dad purchased in 1992 still works
fine. I'll have to wait and see if this is just luck, or if it has
actually fixed it. As usual with Microsoft's products, nothing works the
way it's supposed to. :-)
