0 Either System provided INF Or Never reboot the computer
128 Set the default path of the installation to the location of the INF. This is the typical setting.
+
1 Reboot the computer in all cases.
2 Always ask the users if they want to reboot.
3 Reboot the computer if necessary without asking user for permission.
4 (132) If a reboot of the computer is necessary, ask the user for permission before rebooting.

The way I got around this is to make a copy of the HAL.inf (HALMP.inf) and remove the reboot commands. The problem is that inf is unsigned. At the time of install I have my driver signing policy set to Ignore. I have used this method for over a year with several XPSP2 builds without issue.
