Prevent maintenance mode boot after power failure

$

I'm running ESXi 4.1 and having an issue with automatically starting my VMs when I bring the host up.  Under normal circumstances, it works fine.  My particular issue is when I kill the server by removing power.  I can restore power to the server and it comes back up, but always in maintenance mode.  This is a tiny implementation at home used mostly as a practice lab for myself, but I'm hosting my VPN server on here so I can access the environment when I'm travelling.  This being the case, if my power goes out at home, ESX will boot, and it will go through the auto startup but log a message that it can't power on the vm in the host's current state.  Long story short, I figure this is most likely expected behavior, but since I can shut down my VMs before performing any work and nobody else is using the host but me, maint mode is more of a hinderance than anything else.  Is there any way to prevent it from booting into maint mode after a power failure?  (The server will automatically power on when power is restored)
