No Time save

Hello,

I have an Amiga 1200 with a icomp ACA1233n (26MhZ) with a RTC. Unfortunately it seems to be that the RTC does not keep the time. I am able to set the time in Amiga OS 3.2. I don't get a error message when I use "setclock save". But after a reboot this time is back to 1970 even when I use "etclock load" load.

Did I use the wrong command or what could be wrong ?

I suppose You have RTC addon? It's from IComp?
You don't need to load manually clock in KS3.x, it should be done automatically. Also setting and save in prefs is enough to set clock in RTC.
Also as was mentioned before, check battery in RTC.
