Quirk with my clocks

I'm building a Binary Game for my final project in Digital Logic and Design and a small portion of this game I'm building uses a countdown timer to show how much time you have left in your round. ...

Alright well I've got the clocks working, but I have 2 more questions that hopefully somebody might be able to answer.

1) How would I go about implementing a reset for the clock? I've got it where the clock stops counting at 90 seconds and freezes...now I'd like to be able to hit a Key and reset the whole thing back to 00.

2) And I've been stuck on this one for a while...I had 8 switches each representing 8 bits of data...they sum together perfectly but whenever I add any other component to my project that has to do with a clock 3 of my 8 switches stop functioning. They begin to act like they are the negative value of what they actually are. The clock is in no way connected to the 8bitadders so I'm really not sure why there is an issue. I was going to ask my professor last week but he dipped out 2 days early for Thanksgiving and canceled all of his classes.
