Are you running vmware?
time is set and maintained by the kernel in both cases - time.windows.com is the timeserver for windows, use that to get a correct time setting right after you boot windows.

Use one of NTP timeservers http://tf.nist.gov/service/time-servers.html for Fedora. setup xntpd (see the man page) if you leave the system up for really long periods of time.
