Intermittent time and/or date changes



PROBLEM - Valuepoint 6382/S, 6387/T, and 6384/D (except P60) experience intermittent time and/or date changes. Time or date may be set to invalid values (hours greater than 24, months greater than 12, etc.).

Machines AFFECTED - Valuepoint 6382/S, 6387/T, and 6384/D (except P60) systems.

SOLUTION -

1. Remove cmosclk.sys from the CONFIG.SYS file.
2. Insure DOS 5.02 or higher is installed. This is the lowest level supported on the above systems. Applications running under DOS 5.x and above do not require cmosclk.sys to insure proper advancing of the date.
If problem persists, continue normal problem determination.
