Hello to all and a happy new year.

I am working since february 1999 successfuly with DJGPP (C, C++, Allegro) 
but I have no experience with ASM.

NOW (!!!) at the 01.01.2000 I have gotten 5 problems, exactly, 2 DNS-
Servers, 2 Access-Servers and one NTP-Server. I am using 5 mainboards of 
the same Type (VL/I-486SVOG) with a Cx486dx40. The AWARD-BIOS is from 1993.

If I run the Norton2000 BIOS-Disk, I get the Date 01.01.1900 and the 29.02 
are correctly. Now I have read in a electronic-magazin, that I can burn my 
own BIOS but first I must edit the "19" to "20"...

Questions:

1)  Does anyone have a experience with it ???

2)  Can anyone tell me please, where I can find the "19" ???

3)  Can I edit the BIOS with DJGPP ???

I have a friend with a EPROM burner and a Dos-Tool for editing.

Thanks in Advance
Michelle
