    Just saw that Dell updated Command Center on its drivers page for a handful of Alienware notebooks, including the M14x, both R1 and R2.

    One of the fixes is, "AlienFX Controller shutdown process was improved."

    This is something that has annoyed a bunch of people. Hopefully it works :)

    I installed the updated software. As stated, it seemed to improve the shutdown time of AlienFX.
