Vista consistently changes the system time on my home desktop computer,
advancing it by 2 hours each time it does so. I've noticed that Vista does
this on a friends laptop, also. Is there a fix coming for this or does anyone
know how to solve this problem?

I have the same problem as the OP, and my time zone IS correct,

Everytime that I rebbot the computer the time is 3hours earlier than the
real tiem, and since the new time change last week-end, my laptop keep
reverting back to an hour before, so every now and then I have to manually
reset the time, but within a few hour it will be again set back 1 hour

Why is it that it can not keep the time setting

BIOS setting are already, and were on delivery correct, as for the battery,
it a laptop, so it can not be changed, and the laptop power is always on the
landlaine utility, so those option are not valid at the moment
