The fact that you do not have the alarm clock DA installed
has nothing to do with your alarm clock going off!!!!

The alarm clock is actually part of the system and I think the
time to go off is stored in parameter ram.

The alarm clock DA is what enables you to turn it on and off
as well as to set it.

Install it and turn your alarm clock off!!!!  Or use something
like other or double apple and then you dont have to install
the DA.  So it is your alarm clock!!!!!

Have fun
