Yeah, still remember them.. :-) Both of them speeding up
your PC's timer tick to get shorter (and smoother) animation
delay. That would speeding up DOS clock for sure (or freeze
it if the interrupt is taken completely), but the correct
DOS date/time should be restored *from* CMOS clock just
before the game exiting to DOS. Not the other way around.
Could be either:
* You run them from within Windows
* You have an exotic CMOS clock hardware,
* Your PC is too fast
