We are just noticing that there is no help to be had -- not entirely off topic.

Perhaps it is the BIOS system clock that is off? Maybe your hardware is trying to be too smart and compensating for DST, while the DST patch doesn't know how to deal with it.

Long shot, but if you've already tried everything else...

If it wasn't for windows, third party software mfg's would have nothing to bash to be able to push their own products and little incentive to make anything better.

As for the time problems, I have had no problems on 4 pc's with the DST update so I'm sorry to be of little help. Plus I don't have the time displayed.

Also I have retreated from keeping track of time per se. I don't wear a watch anymore, eat when I'm hungry not at some arbitrary time set by some clock , ie Noon. I sleep when I'm tired, get up if it's daylight out. My internal biotime has always served me well by waking me a few minutes before the alarm, so I don't use alarm clocks anymore. I don't miss my flights and I'm very relaxed nowadays. And generally feel better for it.
