Dual Booting and Clock Issues

I had an interesting issue with the time on my computer. When I would boot into windows, the time would be 4 hours off. I would reset the clock, then boot into Linux. The Linux time would then be 4 hours off.

After a while of setting the clock every time i booted into the other operating system, I started getting really annoyed. It turns out that Windows and Linux use and store the time differently, and they change the computer clock every time they boot.

I managed to find this page, which shows detailed steps to fix the problem in windows. So far, it seems to be working...

Update: No, it is not working, darn.
