Surely not. As for the dual bout with an other OS (let's call it "MS-Win" ;o)), people can easily face a wrong time due to a bad configuration in linux side: the hardware time should be set as local time instead of UTC to avoid a time difference between both the OSes. But no time reset symptom (unless possible MS-Win virus). As said earlier, bios battery must be going out.
