    My wireless was cutting out so I disabled "Microsoft Zero Configuration" and let my Ralink Configuration Utility (with updated RT2500 driver) manage my wireless connection. Now my wireless works better, but the RT2500 utility window pops up every time I start my computer - how do I keep the window from popping up and still keep the RT2500 utility on with the small RT2500 icon in the lower right corner by the clock?

    I went to START>RUN>msconfig and disabled "Config2500", but then I had to start the program manually every time I turned on the wireless.

    Basically, I just need to know how to keep the RT2500 window from popping up when I start my laptop. I don't want to go back to the generic Microsoft utility, but at least it didn't have a nagging pop up window.

    Ok it turns out I didn't have the very latest driver version. I got a new driver from Ralink.com and the utility seems to work correctly without the dang pop up window.
