Upon the switch to EDT on March 8 (US Eastern Time), the system time in WinXP (SP2) did not change even though the clock of the host computer behaved properly. In the settings of WinXP, automatic switch to Daylight Saving Time is set. The time setting is important because the data are synchronized between the host and virtual machines. What could be the problem and how can it be fixed?

Virtualization is the act of creating a virtual (rather than actual) version of something, including (but not limited to) a virtual computer hardware platform, operating system (OS), storage device, or computer network resources. Virtualization is usually the creation of a system that executes separate from the underlying hardware resources, or the creation of an entire desktop for systems located elsewhere, similar to thin clients.

Virtualization

Microsoft Windows XP is the sixth release of the NT series of operating systems, and was the first to be marketed in a variety of editions: XP Home and XP Professional, designed for business and power users. The advanced features in XP Professional are generally disabled in Home Edition, but are there and can be activated. There were two 64-bit editions, an embedded edition and a tablet edition.
