    Hey so my graphics driver seems to always be disabled on startup. Causing me to manually enable the driver in control panel. Is there anything I can do for the driver to be enabled on startup again? I have tried fiddling with msconfig but nothing seems to work :(. On startup the nvidia icon is also missing. I can not play games unless i have my graphics enabled.

    I have an Alienware m11x R1 for about a year now, and this little problem is ticking me off.
