    I just finished installing windows on my new HDD (for the computer in my sig) and after restarting windows it gave me two options for configuring my wireless LAN card

    -Only use Windows wireless function.
    -Only use our WLAN utilities and disable windows wireless function.

    Anyone know which option I should go with?

    should not matter really. Use whatever you feel more comfortable with.

    I'd say use windows so you don't have to run an extra program 24/7

    Doesn't matter. Both can connect you automatically but I prefer Windows.
