Win XP clock locked to Mac OS X clock?

I am running Build 3186, purchased a day or so ago. Having a frustrating time with the WinXP clock. It seems to be locked to the OS X clock, where the current OS X time is always taken to mean Pacific Standard Time (GMT-8). When I change the time zone to where I actually am (GMT+8), WinXP will set the clock to back by an appropriate amount. If I set the time to local time, the clock will stay set momentarily, then flip back to OS X time.

It's driving me nuts, because i sometimes have to use Outlook Web Access to access my email that is sitting on a machine. When that happens events get messed up on the Exchange server.

Help!

why are you not running the Mac on local time?

It might mess with the mac file system to have two system clocks
