It's a little bit of a kludge but in effect you make services dependent on others. I've yet to find a while to just set an actual numerical order.
In my case PCAnywhere was killing Exchange so we made PCAnywhere dependent on Exchange - it could only try to start after Exchange was up and running. The technique is detailed here: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;193888 It may take some playing, but making CF dependent on a service that's taking a while could fix it or making that service dependent on CF.
