Automatic restart on system failure not working

I am using Windows XP Professional, SP2, 32-bit version with all the updates
from Automatic Windows Updates service.
The problem I am having is that my computer will not reboot after Windows
encounters a system failure (also known as the Blue screen of death). This
feature did work when I initially installed Windows on this computer, but as
I wanted to find out the cause of the failures, I disabled it from System
properties.
Now I need to use my computer more and more remotely, so it is critical that
it stays operational. Some times it has happened that a system failure
happened and I was not able to connect. When I eventually get back with
physical access to the computer I can see that it has a blue screen with
error details, even though I have already swithced the option to restart on
failure back to enabled state.
I have also checked using Registry Editor that the value AutoReboot is 1.
For me it appears that all the settings are correct but Windows will stop at
the system failure, not restart like it should do.
