If you wish, you can disable the "clock uses UNC" setting for the time in Fedora. Simplest solution is to enable NTP (network time) in both Vista and Fedora. (You can Google on how) >> 2.

There is a difference between asking for help, and asking others to do everything for you. When asking for help, a person has already tried to accomplish the task, has therefore found where they are having trouble, and can therefore ask specific questions for answers that will enable them to progress. When asking someone else to do everything for them, a person usually asks very general questions because they haven't yet tried to solve the problem themselves. Cheers!
