Meeting requests are scheduled one hour later than expected at rec

background: A new DELL laptop running Vista and Office 2003. network Running
Exchange server 2003 for email and calendering.

When a meeting request is sent by the new laptop - Windows Vista/office
2003, to any other client on the network - All running Windows XP SP2, the
meeting is scheduled as expected on the new laptop, while any other attendees
have the meeting scheduled 1 hour later????

ex:
Jon sends meeting request for 8am to Jane - running Vista/OL2003
Jane receives meeting request for 9am - running XP/OL2003

All MS updates have been made for the DST changes on the server and on
clients. In either case, as far as I understand, scheduling issues should
only be happening during the 2-3 week change period from old DST to new DST.

Help please.......?

is the time zone and dst setting correct on the laptop? 1 hour differences
usually mean either the time zone is wrong or the box is not checked to
honor dst.

So.....it turns out that the DST check box was not "checked" in Outlook,
which I am thinking was causing the scheduling issues. However, when I am
logged into the machine(laptop) and try to change the Time Zone Settings in
Outloook, I get an error message saying: "You do not have the permission to
change Time Zone Settings......try adding a new Time Zone instead....your
settings will not be saved". When the dialog box is closed, the settings all
revert back to their original state.....I even tried adding a new time zone
and it wouldn't let me do that either.

So now I know the problem, but Outlook wont let me change it.........any
ideas?

The laptop was logged in using an administrative account, I cant figure out
why it would not let me change local settings??
