Hey guys

I have an Inspiron8600. It came with a utility called Dell Quickset. I removed the part in my startup where it started, I don't know if I removed it in regsitry or in the startmenu (I used TuneUp 2004).

Anyway, the QuickSet program was useful, I didn't know, so I put it back in my StartMenu and it starts up and everything works fine. ... Except that it shows this PowerManagement configuration everytime I reboot my PC. I just ahve to click (Next) a few times, and then everything works. But I hate having to do this.

I looked for command line options to make it "save" the config, or to run invsibile or whatever, but I can't find anything. Does anyone have a clue how to cure this?

Thanks!
