Some further details:

I  have  a problem with my system clock. It seems to  be  running 
fast and I don't know what to do about it.

It's got two MR BIOS chips on it. A standard EPROM marked MR BIOS 
(c)  1989,1990,1991 and a longer DIL plug in chip marked MR  BIOS 
VR3030H (c) Microid Research 1994.

The  seconds on the clock in the BIOS seem to be going by  faster 
than  in  DOS applications, and the system is  certainly  gaining 
time dramatically. Can you advise where the problem is?

System comprises:

4 MB RAM (2 x 70ns 2 x 100ns 30 pin SIMMs)
80486-25SX clocked at 33 MHz (step back to 25 no difference)
MS BUS Mouse
