This probably isn't it, but have you put "Setclock opt load" in 
the startup-sequences of the disks that you want to use with the
clock? This will load the correct time in the system clock.
Don't forget to put "Setclock" AND "Date" in the C directories of
those disks, but you knew that ofcourse.

(At least, your clock, I hope. Mine gives me ridiculous times like
 23 september 1978 or 12 july 2005, even after several resets to
 the right date with preferences AND "setclock opt save". This will
 work for a week or so, after that, the date gets messed up somehow.
 Anybody out there know why? Lemme know when you do 8-) )
