What does MSI “System Control Manager” actually do?
On my MSI notebook, I got this little application called the “System Control Manager”. It doesn’t really seem to so anything and always is in the little icon bar on the left of my clock. Does anyone know what it does? Is it safe to uninstall it (it’s annoying me a little)?

It doesn’t really seem to DO anything

What is wrong with Sony VAIO? Hard drive or battery? What should I do?
i\’ve a Sony VAIO notebook, model VGN FS730/W that is only about 18 months old. During the past few weeks, it has slowed down significantly, most noticeable during start up, shut down, and internet browsing. I very rarely take it out and about — most of the time, it sits on my desk. I’ve also noticed the AC plug-in area getting pretty hot (but not intolerable to be on my bare knee) and the plug itself doesn’t plug in correctly/tightly anymore.
What’s wrong with it? Device manager doesn’t show any exclamations indicating driver problems. Sony’s quick email help states I may need a new hard drive ($260 from them). Would that be difficult to install myself? Can I get a better deal elsewhere? What about the power plug-in?
I live in Atlanta. Any places I can go take it in and have them fix or at least diagnose it would be greatly appreciated. Cost estimates would be great, too. Thanks!
Also, I ran multiple security and anti-spyware/virus programs. System is clean.
