Hmmm....I'll give this a shot.....as I said, it was built by my brother in law, somewhat cannibalized from other computers, but I did find this book, so maybe it will help.

The motherboard is a AB-PX5 (at least that is what is highlighted in the book). It has a Pentium 233MHz CPU. (Again, that is what is highlighted in the book.) On the layout diagram, I see only a "Clock Generator".

I also noticed that it said if you change the CMOS battery, you lose all the CMOS data in memory, and should have your setting written down before you change the battery.

But if the battery is dead, wouldn't I have lost all the data in the memory and be having other problems besides just the clock?
