I have a ROM 01 Apple IIgs that I pieced together recently.  I replaced 
the battery so it remembers the control panel settings now.  One thing 
that bugs me, though, is the clock.  It hasn't updated since I set it 
except once when it was unplugged.  I don't remember what I could have 
done to cause it to advance by about 30 seconds.  While I suppose I can 
live without a working clock, any help would be much apprectiated.  It's 
late, I'm tired, so if this doesn't make any sense... ask as many 
questions as are necessary.

I don't have a clue, other than the obvious thing, to try resetting the
clock again to the correct time. Perhaps it didn't get the message to
start ticking.

It's probably a stupid suggestion, but given that nobody has replied in
five days with a better idea, I thought I'd throw the only idea that
popped into my head out there.
  
I have set the clock several times.  I even set it to 1990 in case it couldn't handle the year '03.  Maybe it has something to do with the System Bad: 0B050000 error I get when doing the self-diagnostic?
