Recently, I heard about a few people having problems with their system time becoming incorrect in Windows XP when using boot camp. This is due to the different way Windows XP and OS X store internal date and time information.

If you look at page 17 of the Boot Camp Beta Setup Guide you will see that this issue is addressed.

Apple suggests synchronising the time to a network time server - a feature available in Date & Time Control Panel (XP) and Date and Time System Preference pane (OS X).
