You mentioned one hour off, which could mean that you have some
problem with the timezone, not with the clock running too fast or
too slow. Is it exactly one hour off, or did you mean "some time off"?

I take this question as serious (I'm not sure if it is). 
UTC = Universal time coordinated (the thing most people call "Greenwich
mean time", but that's not the same). You can let your RTC run at 
UTC or in local time. For machines dual-booting with Windows, you most
often use local time.
