Date is not correct!!!

Guest · Posted: Sat Feb 12, 2011 6:40 am Post subject: Date is not correct!!!

I found that the blueMSX dose not copy the exact date as it is on the computer.
On computer date is 12/02/2011
while on bluemsx is 12/02/1911
which is late for only 100 years, so could we solve this problem.

thanks a lot.

Which program did you use to check this?

I've done some checking with MSX-DOS2 and Multi Mente. It works the way it should.

I think this problem happens only with MSX2 Arabic machine. It's a bug in the BIOS of this machine, not a bug in blueMSX.

I just checked... It is. The 19xx thing is hard coded and never corrected to 20xx. A genuine Y2K bug.
