A classroom of PS/2 model 50's has been plagued with erratic but persistent
problem with clocks losing time -- i.e. several hours to about a day,
apparently when they are powered off overnight or longer.  It's not consistent
but reoccurs frequently ( more than 1/week.) One, 2 or most machines may show
the slippage each morning.
Batteries have been exchanged, DOS3.3 ( and patch) reinstalled, to no avail.
 
Very little software installed or being used; no memory resident programs,
terminal emulators, or LAN.
Any suggestions would be appreciated: even hearing that other have experience
the same problem would be a relief.
