Help: CPU at 100%

Hi!

First of all thanks to everyone who reads this and might help me!!!
My cpu-usage is permanently at 100%, which really slows down my computer.
The process at 100% is SynTPEnh.exe

I have also produced a hijackthis-log (see below).

I hope that someone knows more about these things than I do and can give me some advices what to do!

Mo

Thanks again, and here is the log-file:

I checked the process on the net and it says that the process is for Synaptics TouchPad support/functionality.

If u do have a laptop, have u tried uninstalling this software if it is not essential, and if it is uninstall it anyways and re-download the software from the vendors website

Thanks very much!

I just re-installed the driver for the touchpad, and now the CPU is at 0-2%

This seems to be the solution!

I am really happy now.

Many, many thanks again,
Mo
