Clock syncing to hardware clock (unwanted behavior)

Hi, I have a situation in which it seems my Windows 2000
and 2003 machines sync the software clock back to the
hardware clock value once it is close to a minute ahead of
the hardware clock.

I have removed all time syncing
software and made sure net time does not have a server to
sync to. Also, I have set the hardware clock 15:00 minutes
ahead and the software clock is constantly syncing itself
but always staying 15 minutes ahead of real time. (this
should rule out any 3rd party syncing software). This only
happens on machines that undergo heavy load.

I've only
found two articles that briefly mention this behavior, but
with no mechanism to turn this behavior off.
I need this to stop. Any help appreciated.
