Windows XP hard crash reboot after login

Question

I've seen a few topics about this, but none of them with solid regression info yet so i'm starting this thread. I hope some of you out there can help out, but I fear the answer is that were all screwed.
SUMMARY:
Windows XP will hard crash (reboot) just after login after loading the UI and during the loading of network components. This then results in the system rebooting into a black screen with no standard windows debug. (which can be forced by F8) Hard shut down is required to restart boot process. This problem can also occur from a waking from sleep, and very rarely occurs at random. When its caused during normal operation its usually spawned on by pressing a button on the keyboard. It will occur randomly at startup, and will occur with Starup Disc set or Option Select. Rarely it will boot into windows XP on the first try, more often (over time) it will require 3-5 reboots to get into XP successfully. This problem isn't caused by the install of any software, instead it progressively gets worse over time. I have experienced this problem with BootCamp 1.3, 1.4 and 2.0 on my MacBook Pro 2.16, but I have never experienced it with my Mac Pro ever which has the same OS and bootcamp installed.
I'm convinced it has something to do with the network drivers and how they are loading. I've noticed that the times it fails to boot that the WiFi and Local Area network icons aren't loaded in the system tray, and the times I have success getting into XP that they are already present when the UI is loading. This same behavior occurs on my Mac Pro and other PC clones, but they dont hard crash when this occurs. On them, you just have to wait for the network to be available.
STEPS:
0) MacBook Pro 2.16 17", Mac OS X 10.5.1, Bootcamp 2.0, Windows XP Pro SP2
1) Power up
2) Hold down Option (can set bootdrive as well)
3) Select Windows
4) Select a User (with password set)
5) Enter password
RESULTS:
Hard crash reboot just after UI loads while network compoents begin to load into the system tray.
WORKAROUND:
Shoot dog
REGRESSION:
Never occures on Mac Pro
Occures with Bootcamp 1.3, 1.4 and 2.0
P.S. I'm writing this in Bootcamp

UPDATE
I've gone into msconfig and turned off everything and have been starting up just fine, so it seams one of these items is cuasing the problem. I see that some people say its the keyboard manager, and I wouldn't doubt it now. So i'm going to leave everything off for now, make sure its always booting and then slowing rool items back on. I'll keep this up to date.
If you want to do this yourself, you can do it two ways.
Built in:
1) Click on the Start Button
2) Select Run...
3) type "msconfig" and hit OK
4) Select the "Startup" tab
5) Unselect everything you see there
6) Close and reboot!
3rd party (the way i prefer)
1) Get Spybot (the new one is awesome)
2) install Spybot
3) Run Spybot
4) Update, immulize and scan (optional, but you will be surprised)
5) Select the "Mode" menu option
6) Select "Advanced mode"
7) Select 'tools" on the lower left hand side
8) Select "System Startup"
9) uncheck all options.
10) close and reboot!
Note: this appiaction is really great, and it will also install a device to watch for reg changes which is good for this sort of regression. Again, its not nessiary to install spybot, but i love it and have it on every PC i ever use and have never regretted it. IT WONT SLOW YOUR COMPUTER LIKE OTHER CRAPPY APPS. This is a very light and clean app.
