Change it to whatever you have under the same key in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE or visa versa as long as they match.

Note: Services uses regional settings in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, while interactive applications use HKEY_CURRENT_USERS. If these values differ, you may experience a number of problems including incorrect job scheduling caused by incorrect date conversions.
