I'm puzzled, but convinced that somebody out there can help.

Instead of changing the digit every second, my Mac changes the digit
indicating the seconds every 2.8 seconds. I have no idea when did all
started. I assume that it worked right when I bought it as an original
128K. In the mean time though I upgraded to 2Mbyte (Levco), 800K floppies
and 128K ROM, and a Levco SCSI port + DataFrame 20. The first time I 
noticed it, I replaced the battery, but that didn't fix it.

I vaguely recall seeing the problem described before on usenet or INFO-MAC,
but I did not save any replies and t

Does somebody know what is going on? Does somebody have the same experience?
Does somebody have a fix?


All suggestions and pointers welcome.
