    I've got a slight problem that I am wondering if anyone has any advice about. I've got a Sager NP5760 with Windows XP and when I start up my computer, there is an open task in the taskbar that says "HOTKEY KEYBOARD".

    Now, it's not that big of a deal, but if I close it, none of my hotkeys will work. Does anyone have any idea of how I can keep this from appearing on my taskbar?
