Losing time in Windows

I'm running XP as a guest and am using Outlook. The problem I have is that Windows doesn't seem to be keeping time whenever I leave a session and I have to reset the Windows time each time I go back to the session. Is there any way to automatically reset the windows closk from the mac system time

If you install the vmware tools into the guest OS you can have the time sync'd between your mac and your guest OS's

Make sure you have time synchronization enabled: system tray > right click on the VMware Tools icon > Open VMware Tools > Options > check "Time synchronization ..." > hit OK
