(...) Theresa, If you're using LegOS (not BrickOS), then I believe the answer is that you can't get around it. I don't think LegOS works with the USB tower.

i had the same problem a while back. I figured out that whit the new BrickOS, sys_time is replaced by get_system_up_time. So when you replace sys_time whit get_system_up_time, everything should work fine.(it worked for me, anyway) (21 years ago, 28-Apr-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
