O.K., I'll check the battery condition too, when I look into this.

Yes, but not real securely . . . at least on this one.

I have Rev. 1.05 of the manual, on which page 51 talks about LBA, CHS,
heads, sectors, and things of that ilk. The only reference to CLRTC I could
find was a tiny part of the MB diagram (towards lower right hand corner)
on p. 14. No apparent description, and not in the Index. In the diagram,
it looks like a jumper, but I've no clue what to do with it.

As to the mounting / isolation of the MB, the fibre washer, etc., I'm not sure
how much of this could be seen at this point, by way of verification. Maybe
not at all, short of physically removing it.
