Okay new bug, I dual boot fine but each time I boot into windows the time is always wrong.
I tried various methods to fix it but for some reason windows wont sync with the time servers.
I dont know why, but its bothering me
 
Solution
I have seen situations where Linux will mess with the time. But try and make sure you are using the correct time Zone and time for both system. What setting you correct first may have an effect.

I assume you have checked your bios time to make sure it is not deviating.
I get this issue a lot in Australia because the Microsoft servers are US and they just can't tell time... my guess is one of your Windows machines is set to sync with the wrong region-time-code? As a work around turn off the auto-set.
 
I did that, but no result.
Windows is being a real dumbass, what else is new.
I am just going to remove linux if that makes windows happy, reinstall linux and hope that corrects it

Solution
the BIOS time checks out, I am thinking of resetting the MOBO time as well by removing my CMOS battery or some crap like this.
 
Can you re-create the issue in a set way ie;
  • Start in linux then reboot to Windows makes it happen... efi settings are out, I'd re-install Linux
  • (Fast-)Shut down (or sleep mode) from Windows then come back on an hour later makes the clock miss that hour?... driver sync is out, a reboot or cmd code shutdown should fix it
  • Its just random with no rhyme to it?... M-board (hopefuly just the CMOS battery) needs replacement.
