I am using Biostar motherboard with ALi-154x (M1531/1543) chipset.
I have found This AWARD ID- String : 05/25/99-ALi-154x-2A5KIB0BC-00 with the
utility CTbios. It detect AWARD Modular BIOS v4.51PG and AWARD plug and play
BIOS Extension v1.0A

I have noticed the system timer slows down about 20 seconds per day, as a
results it slows down about 10 minutes per month.
Is there any way to adjust the speed of this system clock?
Is this clock called CMOS clock? Where does this clock reside? In BIOS ?
What is the difference between this clock and CPU clock (e.g. 233MHz in my
case)?
Please help.
Regards
Sanjoy
