                          ------------

Purpose:

   Used to reset your computer's software system clock  by reading the
time from the computer's hardware (CMOS) clock.

Reason:

   Some computer games change the interrupt rate for your computer in
order to be able to have faster animation without jerkiness and still
have the timing of the animation be independant of your processor
speed.  Not all of such programmes make any attempt to correct the
handling of the system clock to allow for the new interrupt rate.  If
you run one of the games that does NOT make such corrections, you may
exit the game and find that your computer system clock has gained three
hours or more.  The usual "cures" for this are:

   (a) ignore the error or
   (b) perform a hardware reboot to reset the clock.

FIXCLOCK.COM will reset the system clock without any reboot necessary.

Usage:

   FIXCLOCK  [ comments ]

Just type the name of the programme.  If you wish to document the reason
for including the command in a batch file, you can add any comments you
wish to the command line to reduce the number of REM statements.  FIXCLOCK
ignores anything included there.
