Allow Windows to use UTC ( also known as GMT )
Darn it. I forgot to fix my automagic audio recordings for day light savings and thus lost an episode.
To add more irritation, I recently re-installed windoz and she messed with my hardware clock.
So with some research, I've created two reg edit files for Windows7 one to cause Windows to use UTC in the hardware clock
and the other to clear that setting. I confess I have not tested the clear script.
I suggest that you create a restore point before making any registry changes.
Here is registry update needed to allow Windows to let the hardware clock to be set to UTC
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\TimeZoneInformation]
"RealTimeIsUniversal"=dword:00000001

To remove this function, use the following.
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\TimeZoneInformation]
"RealTimeIsUniversal"=-
Get your copy of the above UnUTC.reg
here
