I just purchased the Dell Dimension XPS600 and after doing some software clean-up in add/remove I am now getting an error on cold boot "Sonic Activation Module" "please insert disk-1.
I tried browsing all the software I received with my system and can not find the file it is looking for. If I open task manager I can "End Task" and everything is fine, but I want to clean it up and cant find anything in either (MSConfig,Startup, Add/Remove or via registry search for SONIC) It is driving me nuts and I dont want to run a full restore after taking a week to customize my box.
Does anyone know of a removal tool or reg cleaner that will fix this specific problem, or has anyone encountered the issue on a new Dell system?

I am having the same problem but after I click restart the window comes up that I keep having to hit cancel a ton of times to get out of. This is driving me nuts!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Please help!!!!!!!!!
Just wanted to say thanks - I have been trawling for weeks now to find the answer. I spoke to Dell, who had decided it was time for me to completely restore my system, I am so glad I found this message, and it saved me loads of trouble.

Go to Start and Run.
Type in MSCONFIG
Go to the Startup Tab on the right.
Disable the following 2 items in the list. uncheck
ISUSPM
ISSCH
Click Apply and the Close - When prompted to do so Restart the System.
Then on restart, just check the System Config Utility box that says 'Don't show this again' and you're done.
