Hi everyone,

a long time ago I read an article in some PC mag about the system clock
not updating the date when the PC is left idle all night; ie the time is
correct but the date is not increased when passing midnight.

I didn't pay much attention at the time because I didn't have the problem,
but now I do.  Any ideas what might cause the problem or how to correct it
(short of manually setting the date each morning).

Thanks!
Joachim
