Wait for Autologon on Startup?

[Bob]

Hello All,
I have a WinXP machine that I've setup to autologon using a domain
account with a login script. The problem is that this box uses a wireless
conneciton. When the box boots up, it automatically logs in before the
wireless card can make a connection to the network. It uses cached
credentials to do so and therefore the logon script doesn't execute.

Is there a way to make the Autologon wait a few seconds before it logs in?

Thanks for the Help,
-Bob
