A time delay relay would be one approach.  Set the subdominant PC to come 
up 30 seconds or a minute after the dominant one.

Another though, (untested mind you) put a software delay in the 
autoexec.bat file.  Even though windows really use this I believe it still 
is executed prior to booting windows so you could insert sufficient delay 
there to allow the other computer to come up before continuing the boot 
sequence.
