Universal Time Not Working

How do you get Universal Time to work correctly in Vista?
I added this key:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\TimeZoneInformation]
"RealTimeIsUniversal"=dword:00000001
and adjusted the clock in bios to GMT-0.
Vista SP1 boots correctly to local time (GMT-7 in this case).
After about 3600 secs Eventlog (ID 6013) logs an uptime announcement event
and sets the clock back to GMT-0. If I resync the clock, the same thing will
happen 7200 secs after boot. If I don't resync the clock, no further uptime
event log.

Short of moving to Greenland, is there any solution to this problem?

You can have more than one clock in Vista. See the help app on that.

You lost me. How can you have more than one SYSTEM clock in any operating
system?
