Are you sure this is access time? Windows
is **peculiar** about times: to support
programmers I reccomend setting
time service = yes
dos filetimes = yes
fake directory create times = yes
dos filetime resolution = yes
delete readonly = yes
See http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/samba/chapter/book/ch08_01.html
for a bit of background on this.
