Hi,

     I have an Epson Equity II+ with a 40Meg hard drive and it seems
like the internal clock slows down about five minutes everyday.  I'll
set the time right one day and three days later when I switch it on
again, the clock is at least fifteen minutes slower.  It's not really
affecting me since I don't use the clock anyway but it is annoying.
I'm wondering if it's the battery that's gone bad or something else.
It's still under warranty but I haven't found the time to bring it
back yet.  I plan to do so in the next few weeks.  Meanwhile, I'll
appreciate it if someone can suggest the causes to this.  Thanks.
