    there is something with brightness with the power management update ! if you notice before this ,, when you back from sleep or hib the brightness will be not correct but now it's ok !!

    and with smar network it's amazing and not slow down the boot like before ( it took a lot of time to run after start windows before )

    Hey guys, I think I disabled that little menu which enabled me to switch off/on bluetooth, wifi, disc drive. How do I enable it again? I would like it to start up again.
