Hi there,

I just reinstalled 1.5.2 on my 345. I didn't touch it since 12/2000 ( no time... ) and it sait "WARNING: bad date in battery clock" now. Fine, the battery 
is 7 years old so I replaced it. But the message still appears, so I have to set the time manually every time I reboot ( the clock has then the time of the 
last shutdown ). What can I do about this ? I thought these y2k-related problems were sorted out long ago ? 
Then I sat the time to 31.12.1999/23:59:50, let it roll over, then 31.12.00/23:59:50 ... didn't help. I didn't have this problem back in 2000 ( but the hp 
ran 1.3 and 1.4 back then ).

thanks in advance
Michael
