you need to do a SetClock Reset command since your clock is totally confused. Then set the date and do a SetClock Save. As for memory, you won't always get back what you started with, even if you do an Avail Flush. There are myriad reasons, but a few are: the program didn't free up all the memory it allocated, a sign of a bad program; the resources allocated by one program are still in use by another program, if so, you won't get that memory back until the other program is finished with it; and simple differences in what was allocated between the start and end of the program, even if it frees everything up. Do NOT kill the RAM: disk. It is required by the system in AmigaDOS 2.04 or better, and highly recommended for AmigaDOS 1.3x. There are a lot of things tucked into the Ram: disk that have to be there in order to have your workbench setup the way you desire. If memory is a problem, it is definitely time to consider upgrading your system by a couple of megabytes, especially if your system is a stock A1200. Your system will run faster and you won't run into this problem unless you run a megaprogram. Your best bet for adding speach to your Amiga is to find a copy of AmigaDOS 1.3 or less somewhere and copy the relevent files off of it. If you need to know which ones, ask and I'll provide a list. So far as I know, there isn't a PD solution to this one. I hope this helps. "You do trust me, don't you? Of course you do." — "To Play the King" (BBC)
