- Subject: CLOCK402 Driver
-
- CLOCK402.SYS is an installable device driver that supports the date-and-time
- clock on the PC 6300, 6300 PLUS, and 6300 WGS computers. It has no effect on
- other computers.
-
- Installation Procedures
-
- Place the program disk in drive A. At the DOS prompt (C:), type
- copy A:\*.* C:\ and press Enter. (Most people use drive a:, but you may have
- another available floppy drive, B:.)
-
- Insert a command line of the following form in your CONFIG.SYS file:
-
- device=[drive:][path]clock.sys [year]where:
- drive = drive containing the CLOCK402.SYS file
- path = directory containing the CLOCK402.SYS file
- year = determines the base year used in date calculations.
-
- For your computer to keep the date accurately, the base year must be no more
- than eight years before the present year. To install CLOCK402.SYS with a base
- year of 1989, you would insert :
- device=c:\clock402.sys 1989
-
- Reboot the Machine and use the Date and Time command to set the current date
- and time.
-
- This should now setup the machine to keep track of the date properly even
- after reboots. You will have to set the date and time once a year when the
- year rolls over.
-
- *** DISCLAIMER *** The SOFTWARE clock driver may not work correctly with
- unsupported PC6300 DOS Versions, such as DOS 3.3 or higher, or non-AT&T DOS
- versions. SOFTWARE applications which load into a memory range that
- conflicts with the SOFTWARE clock driver may cause unpredictable results. Any
- SOFTWARE applications which continue to read the HARDWARE clock instead of the
- DOS clock WILL continue to see the wrong date.
-
- NCR can not and does not warrant that the functions of the SOFTWARE will meet
- your requirements or that SOFTWARE operation will be error-free or
- uninterrupted. NCR has used reasonable efforts to minimize defects or errors
- in the SOFTWARE. However, you assume the risk of any and all damage or loss
- from use, or inability to use the SOFTWARE.
-
- Your exclusive remedy and NCR's entire liability shall be, at NCR's option,
- either the return of the fee paid for the fix, or the handling fee for this
- fix, or the replacement of this fix.
-
- Under no circumstances shall NCR or AT&T be liable for any damages whatsoever
- (including without limitation, damages for lost profit, lost information, or
- other economic loss) related to the use of this fix, even if NCR or AT&T have
- been advised of the possibility of such damages.
