This sounds like one too many to me. What paths do they have? And do they
have any command-line options?
On my machine, the commandline for Service Manager is:
"E:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\80\Tools\Binn\sqlmangr.exe" /n
I tested to run this from a command-line window. Without /n the application
would appear as a window. With /n it only showed in the tray, which is
the way I normally want it.

The scm application is "Service Control Manager", an application I did
not have any knowledge prior to reading your post. The purpose appears to
be to autostart the ASUS\ENCOREPRO service. A more normal way to do this
would be to configure the service as Automatic in Services under Computer
Management.

I hope you have had other reasons for reformatting than just getting
rid of the pop-up!
