You can modify the time zone DST within Microsoft Windows on any version using the time zone editor. You can download it from Microsoft and adjust the settings for your time zone and it will allow your OS adjust automatically. I have tested this on XP, Windows 2000, NT 4 and Win 98 and it works correctly. Here is the link http://support.microsoft.com/gp/cp_dst
