Jul 16, 2014 2:54 AM in response to appcrasherby Virdel MacSeeder 2014,If you dual boot your Windows PC with OS X or Linux, you may have experienced a problem in which your clocks reset themselves incorrectly every time you boot into Windows. Here's a simple registry edit to fix that.
Essentially, the incorrect clock setting happens because OS X and Linux use GMT time while Windows tries to synchronize with your local time zone, getting confused when you reboot between the two. Apple's own Boot Camp drivers for Windows are supposed to fix this problem, though some users have noticed that it still happens even with the drivers installed, and some Linux users are left out in the cold. Furthermore, if you have a Hackintosh, you can't install the Boot Camp drivers, so you'll need to find another way around the problem.
To fix it, just hit Start and type
regedit.exein the search box. Hit Enter and navigate toHKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\TimeZoneInformation. Right click anywhere in the right pane and hit New > DWORD (32-bit) Value. Name itRealTimeIsUniversal, then double click on it and give it a value of 1.Lastly, reboot into OS X, then reboot back into Windows. You should now notice that your clock actually displays the correct time.

Jul 16, 2014 3:06 AM in response to Virdel MacSeeder 2014by Virdel MacSeeder 2014,In addition to the last reply on this thread, please name the DWORD value RealTimeIsUniversal correctly. Make sure there are no spaces before and after the word, and must use uppercase and lowercase letters together. If your Windows operating system type is 64-bit, try first the DWORD (32-bit) value. Then reboot. If it doesn't work, reboot back to Windows and then use DWORD (64-bit) value.
Hope this can help. Thank you.
