Starting Windows causing wrong clock-time on OS X

[Lumio]

Hi,
I just found out, that when I boot into Windows, that my clock get changed. How can I prevent that? When I start Windows, wait a view seconds, it changes the clock to the right time on windows and on the same time it changes it on my mac maching (I see it on reboot)

Does anyone know, how to stop doing windows that?

You really can't.

I can: Just disabled changing from summer to wintertime and also switched my timezone to GMT+0 Now the clock on windows is wrong, but that doesn't matter for me.

So, you wanted the Windows side to be wrong?

If for some bizarre reason you're connected to the Internet while on the Windows side (why? J/K It's probably work related.), Windows will connect to the some server and "correct" your time. (I do the because it always screws up my clock by an hour.)

Just turn off the synchronize with the Internet time server option in the clock setting.

It's the way Windows was designed. Like junk. Like father (Gates), like son (Windows) right?

All joke aside, you really can't do anything about it. It's a 'bug' that is extremely hard to correct.

Windows has permissions to directly edit the bios system clock?

This drives me crazy, too. Easiest solution I've found is to do as a previous poster said - set the Windows clock wrong. The only time I use Windows is to play games, so who cares if the clock's wrong (I don't play online games or anything - mostly Age of Empires II and III).

It has done this for me too, eventually OS X's clock will just autocorrect it's self.

Change the time zone in OS X to GMT+0 turn off auto-sync. It'd look fine on the menu bar if you don't meddle with it.

I recently purchased an iMac 20" (2.66 GHz). I have had the same problem of clock. There are suggestions on the net for editing the Windows registry. Presently I do not have the link. Please try that. It will change the Windows local time to UTC or something and then clocks would be OK. I will try this only after getting multiple NTFS on my HDD.
