i encounter the same problem when my sons play Lords of the realm II and
do not reboot it after they are done. Somehow the playdates interfere
with the system clock. When I was running 3.11, I added the DATE
statement to the autoexec.bat file. It would stop the load until I
pressed a key to verify the DATE was correct. I have seen it only twice
since going to WIN95.. HTH
