Question Recovery from system crash box keeps poping up?

Hi,
My PC got the BSOD last nite, a win32k.sys error. I have Windows XP Pro. Well it rebooted fine and the box that says Your system has recovered from a system failure or something like that poped up, I sent the error to microsoft the box went away, but keeps coming back. I googled the problem and one link I found said go into control panel/administrative tools/services/Windows Management Instrumentation right click on it and change to Manual. Well I did that and it worked but everytime I reboot the box comes back. I change it back to automatic and then to manual and it stops. Anyone know what's going on here? What a pain in the butt!
TIA
