What version of Windows are you running? I use the GPLPV drivers with version
3.2 and 3.3 of Xen, I see the yellow exclamation points next to these devices,
but I don't get any messages about failed devices or services at boot time.
Can you check and verify that nothing else is failing to start?

There are many features in the later versions of Xen beyond just improved GPLPV
support that make it attractive. I'm still stuck using Xen 3.2 because that's
what SLES 10 ships with and that's the Linux O/S we've standardized on, but if
you can easily move to 3.4, there are quite a few things that make it worth it
- multi-core CPU support and gPXE are a couple that I like.
