Read the part of my post above about NAT. If your PC is connected to a router, Virgin's network is not involved in assigning IPs to the devices (such as your PC) on your network. The router will.
If the problem is also occuring when the PC is attached directly to the modem, that would suggest there is something on the PC that takes a while to kick in after a reboot, but is preventing DHCP requests. Do you have any firewalls set up?
