Topic: Extruder On/Off Heat Setting

I finally got this thing working again...   I used to be able to turn on both extruder & bed temps at the dame time and they both would heat to temp in ~3 min, not so with this new thing I got. The extruder still takes ~ 3min, the bed takes> 35 min, that's with a 350W SuperNight PS!  So, I now turn on the bed and go about my business and come back to print.  Most times, I forget to turn on the extruder, it's very annoying....  There was a setting to not allow the extruder to work unless the temp was up.  I can't remember where it's at... 

Any help is greatly appreciated -
Thanx
