Adding a description doesn't help me.  But Corinna's thoughts sound 
viable.  Given the specs (and overclock) on my machine, it's quite 
feasible that services without dependancies are being started too 
quickly.  Unfortunately, I don't see a way (in 2K) to add a dependancy. 
 Nor does TCP/IP exist as a service.

I'll look into it more at the office...
