THanks for replying Tandis

ok, I found a solution to this - since I keep all my program installers, I uninstalled 3.1, installed 2.3 YES ! 2.3 !, then reinstalled 3.1 again - and all the clocks work fine, except the "Kewl Clock". the clock face hours minutes & seconds hands are there but they don't move ! https://www.wincustomize.com/ViewSkin.aspx?SID=1&SkinID=565&LibID=34&u=0

I tried uninstalling and reinstalling 3.1 - no success, until I put in the older version then installed over it ...
whats the "Hackey GDI hands" ? can it be fixed ?

Hmmm .. EDIT .. correction, some of the clocks seem not to work still .. here's another clock with hands not working .. https://www.wincustomize.com/ViewSkin.aspx?SID=1&SkinID=584&LibID=34 also, there is a clock called iAlarm, from deviantart - it's a kind of 'flip clock' and its not showing any numbers in the display ...
