DST may well be the answer. If I boot Linux on my Win8 laptop in the
summer, it knows the time perfectly well. If I now boot Win8, the clock
is an hour ahead. It does use a network time source but it does not
query the source on boot, or soon afterwards. Eventually it will do so,
but on a fixed schedule, so not for days, and there seems to be no way
to fix it. It's not just the first time after DST arrives, it's every
time.

I give it a kick manually, which of course involves entering an admin
password...
