Hi, Peggy! I'm sorry you're having problems with the stopwatch feature. I use the alarm feature a lot and have not had any problems (knock on wood.) I enjoy it very much. Also, I have played with the stopwatch a few times lately, but do not do it on a regular basis. I think the next thing to play with, though, is the mp3 player. That sounds like fun!
