Windows does not support GMT hardware clock (unless your localtime
happens to be GMT).  It never has, and it seems they have no intension
of supporting it, even though it would solve problems with dual booting
and daylights savings time if you have two different windows installed
on one system.  I guess they just don't care about their customers.
