When I arrived this morning at the office, my PC clock had the correct time. Today I spend most of the day in DOS, programming using RHIDE, DJGPP and Allegro. At the end of the day my PC clock was about 1 hour and 25 minutes behind. I haven't used any timer routines or interrupts in my program myself (that is, not that I know of), but I did use Allegro for mouse and graphics support. To get a mouse pointer on the screen with Allegro you have to install the timer module (according to the Allegro docs). Does this slow down the PC clock? If so, how can I pre-/circum-vent this? Or is it maybe due to all the debugging I did today (a lot), i.e. a lot of installing and uninstalling Allegro? Any enlightment would be appreciated.
