You can make Windows use UTC by editing registry:
http://superuser.com/questions/185773/does-windows-7-support-utc-as-bios-time

However, do note that Windows would NOT update the hardware clock if
this is done. So make sure Linux would properly set the HW clock at
shutdown or your clock may drift over time.
