BSOD on startup

My PC is crashing during or very shortly after startup. It gets a bluescreen and reboots after getting partway through Windows XP load. It has occasionally gotten all the way into Windows before it bombs.

I've replaced the power supply with a known-good but I don't have any way to replace the CPU, MB, vidcard or memory.

Which of these would be the most likely culprit?

Thank you.
 
Biggerhammer, do you possibly have a wireless card in your computer? I have been doing some searching, and it seems like a lot of people have this same problem with Linksys or Cisco wireless cards. It doesn't seem like updated drivers or anything really fixes the problem, other than uninstalling the hardware and software and getting a new wireless adapter.

I'm thinking that is what I might have to do with my computer. Any new developments with your problem?
