There exists a question, I also thought about several times: http://reboot.pro/14567/#entry129262
History: In VistaPE, Nightman saw the timezone issue and added some lines of code.
Unfortunattelly the code is hardcoded, and only provided for several languages.
As a result: When I take my PE CD built in Germany, fly to Australia, and boot a PC with my PE CD: Time is "German". Maybe that this is not very welcome to have about 12 hours time difference to local time.
The VistaPE project has been copied and modifed for some new Win7 projects, starting with Joshua's Win7RescuePE up to ChrisR's Win7PE_SE.
The 'hardcoded' issue still remains.
ChrisR added several sophisticated scripts to manage the timezone issue. But IMO the main issue still exists: "When I fly to Australia ..."
IMHO there is only one way:
I'm working on grabbing the "daylight save" information from the local host during boot.

IMHO there is only one way:
- In WinBuilder build, do not code timezone information into your PE. That causes full BIOS time using except daylight saving offset.
- Optionally use time zone information of the host during boot wich adds the daylight saving information.
