Blue-Screen problem on Dell Laptop

I have a Dell mobile workstation (Latitude Precision M60) running XP Pro that 
works just fine when running stand-alone...

If I cold-boot it on the port expander/desktop adapter, it will blue-screen 
with an error indicating that there is a problem with a driver.
(sorry - don't have all of the details right now)

However, if I first boot it up, _then_ mount it on the port expander/desktop 
adapter while it is running, it doens't blue-screen.

What gives?  

Please, Please, Please: 
Even though I have a support contract, Don't tell me to call Dell technical 
support.  They SUCK!

Regards,
Steve
