XP Host Restarts when RDC client connects

I started getting a problem on my Host computer when I try to connect to it
using Remote Desktop. Every time I connect to my Host pc (XP Pro No-SP) the
operating system restarts on the host. I was connecting fine last week before
I installed some windows security updates...now this odd behavior. My client
pc is XP Pro SP2.
Where do I start diagnosing the problem (and maybe fixing it) ? Any help
would be appreciated.
Is it possible that these security updates chnged the registry in a way that
RDC is no longer possible?

Thanks,
Miguel

1. Check the event logs on the host PC
2. The host PC should be running SP1 at a minimum - SP2 should also be
attempted
