I don't have a NT machine left in my office to check.  Under Win9x,
you would double-click the tray clock then go to the Time Zone tab and
chose the correct UTC offset from the combo box.

There are a number of registry keys in 9x under My
Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\TimeZoneInformation,
if you have a second machine to compare it with.

My subkey "Bias" has the binary value "2C 01 00 00" (but it is not
defined as a double word).  When taken as 0x0000012C, this would be
decimal 300 minutes or 5 hours, which is my standard (not daylight
savings) time offset from UTC here in the Eastern timezone.  

There are several other subkeys too.  But I would think you should
compare to a NT machine, not 9x.

Apologies to David for being off-topic.  You can E-mail me privately
Bob if you want more specifics on 9x registry settings.

Doug
