How can I stop post-image computer config from running?

I need a solution

I made the mistake of checking the "Automatically perform configuration task after completing this imaging task." when I created an updated UI.  The image was sysprepped so min-setup runs after imaging a computer.  The pc restarts and then immediately the Altiris Configure Computer box pops up on the screen.  The problem is that sysprep added the PC to the domain.  The image was made in my lab networks so the Configure Computer takes it out of the domain, puts it into a workgroup and renames the computer back to what it was when I made the image.  A coule of questions:

1. What is the source of the config information since this is not an actual task, it's the result of the box being ticked.

2. How can I stop this from running?

I've brought the computer up in Safe Mode after the first restart, so the Configure Computer does not run.  I've scoured the registry looking for the keys and settings that would cause this to run.  Zip.  If I stop the Altiris Agent service from starting, it never runs, but as soon as I start it, the Configure Computer window pops up and it runs.  So I know the Altiris Agent is what's initiating it.  I disconnected the PC from the network before starting the PC, but it still runs so I know that the computer does not actually have to talk to the deployment server for this to run.

Anybody have any ideas?  I have about 500 computers that will have this issue.  I'm trying to avoid having to rename, reboot, add to the domain, reboot again if I can just start in Safe Mode and kill the config process before it starts.

Thanks,

Tim
