To monitor drivers and ressources that startup within windows you can use 2 cool tools

1.) Bootvis
[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BootVis]
BootVis is a computer application that allows PC manufacturers to check how long a Windows XP machine takes to boot, and then to optimize the boot process, sometimes considerably reducing the time required. It was formerly a Microsoft product, but it is no longer available from the company’s website.

About Bootvis.exe
Bootvis.exe is a performance tracing and visualization tool that Microsoft designed to help PC system designers and software developers identify performance issues for boot/resume timing while developing new PC products or supporting software.

Please note that Bootvis.exe is not a tool that will improve boot/resume performance for end users. Contrary to some published reports, Bootvis.exe cannot reduce or alter a system’s boot or resume performance. The boot optimization routines invoked by Bootvis.exe are built into Windows XP. These routines run automatically at pre-determined times as part of the normal operation of the operating system.

2.) RegMon
[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regmon]
RegMon is a tool used in system administration, computer forensics, and application debugging. RegMon was primarily created by Mark Russinovich and Bryce Cogswell, employed by SysInternals prior SysInternals being bought out by Microsoft in 2006.

RegMon monitors and records all actions attempted against the Microsoft Windows Registry. RegMon can be used to detect failed attempts to read and write registry keys. It also allows for filtering on specific keys, processes, process IDs, and values.
