Hello!

I just upgraded my 386DX machine with MSDOS 5.0.  I also downloaded and
installed a shareware program called BOOTANY, which let me boot from
any partition on my harddisk.  The problem is that whenever I boot up
using BOOTANY, it sets dos time to 12:00:00am.  The dos date is correct.
I also checked the CMOS date and time, and they were all correct.
Then I booted up the system from a floppy disk, and the dos time was correct.
Is there anyone who had the similar problem?  Anyone knows how to
fix it?
or alternatively, is there any way to get the CMOS time, which is correct,
and then set the dos time?
By the way, I have a 386DX-25Mhz with AMI/C&T.

Any info will be appreciated.

Regards.

Jae.                              Bitnet   : JHWANG@AUVM.BITNET
