Okay, not up to date on the clock stuff so apologies...

but does this work with TOS machines with original
onboard clock chips like the Mega ST4, Mega STe and
STacy?

Thanks.

It works with both TOS 1.04 and EmuTOS 1.0 on my Mega ST4 as mentioned above, so I would say yes.

Someone would need to test Mega STe and TT to confirm these work or not.

Okay, I'm going to download it and try it on all the machines I mentioned.

(Well, probably don't really need to try it on the STacy - it has an Ultrasatan)

Thanks!

Okay, just wanted to follow up on this.

I tried it on my Mega ST4, placing DALLAS1.PRG
in the AUTO folder.

During the bootup process, when the programs
are running from the AUTO folder, I get 4 bombs.

It does not stop the bootup process and I do wind
up at the desktop.

BBS Express! ST still does not recognize the correct
date. It still shows "<1".

Thanks.
