What in the event log is telling you Server service not running is causing
your BSDs? I run that way on 4 out 6 XP machines here at home.

this) doesn't trust me to config the system the way
*I* want. For example, I decided one day to disable some services (server,
messenger, etc) for security, the same ones recommended to disable on any
win2k/xp machine exposed to the internet. So, all's going good and fine,
until i reboot. Now, XP gives me
(intermittently) a BSOD at startup! I check the system logs, and find that
the crashes were from "server"
service not being able to startup. very weird....
