BootCamp is only a Beta. Its not perfect.
Use the search feature, as I think its a common problem.
(I could be wrong, but im 99.9% its very, very common)

thanks. i did a search but guess i didnt use the right words..?? what an annoying non-working simple feature.

It happens because Windows uses a non-standard way to get the time. A future release of Boot Camp may automatically adjust the clock when you boot into Windows, but at the moment the easiest solution is to set Windows to automatically synch with a time server.

im not sure that works... mine was set to auto sync with a time server and it was still a few hours off everytime i booted into XP.
I had this problem too, but I figured out how to fix it.
1.Go to the time panel in Windows
2.Set the time zone to your own.
3.Go to the third tab (internettime), and enter time.apple.com in the box. Push Enter. Happy clocking :]
