Windows rebooting problem.

We have had a problem with XP (and maybe 2000) systems rebooting.  We
use McAfee and all "infected" systems come up clean when scanned in safe
mode/no network.   Most times the system crashes either prior to the
Windows Logon Screen or just seconds after someone logs in.

The dreaded "Blue Screen of Death" appears with the following error:
STOP

Fatal systems error
Windows logon process system process terminated unexpectedly.
Status 0xc0000005

There is some mention that perhaps only networked systems experienced
this problem.  Seems to boot up and run in Safe Mode/No Network.

Any ideas/suggestions?  I will do my best to answer any questions about
this as I am getting this info piecemeal.

Thanks,
