Mno | It is constantly using 98% or more of the processor until it is killed. |
Alfred Abplanalp | Compaq Notebook Touchpad Util. Some versions XP-incompatible See also: Link |
Michael S. | Raubt Systemresourcen. Unbedingt Prozeß beenden. System wird danach deutlich schneller. |
Bruce Wetherall | It grabs large amounts of CPU resources, up to 90%, for no apparent reason. |
DaWuf | Does use much of processing power. If able use a usb mouse and kill the process |
| Agree with Mno. It uses 99% of CPU on booting up. Have to kill it to get going |
Gerk Deukkler | deletes c drive after 4 hours |
Mr. T | It does seem to run away, best to uninstall it as the touch pad will still work without it. |
spider @ IBM | Shouldn't be using as much resources as Bruce Wetherall's computer is - may be a problem there. ThinkPad touchpad driver. It along iwth SynTPLpr.exe should only take about 7,500K. Killing it may disable touchpad (but not trackpoint) but don't delete it! |
alex | pops up and freezes everything, very annoying |
Phil Bowerman | Agree with comments about using up to 98% of resources. Stopped it running at startup using start/run/msconfig. Laptop is now flying with no apparent ill effects! |
Tom Parker | I have a compac presario laptop with a synaptics touchpad. Most of the time I use it with external keyboard, mouse and monitor. Many times I've found synTPEnh.exe to be totally hogging cpu time, blocking all other applications. I use Task Manager to end the process with no negative effects. But every time I reboot the application is loaded and eventually dominated operation. |
hippe | its useing large amounts of cpu resourses for no apparent reason |
vik | Supposed to be the process that regulates touch pads on laptops, but recently mine has been taking up 99% cpu usage. Annoying. |
| Synaptic Touchpad Driver (DELL and other) |
IqbalHamid | This is the driver software to allow your touchpad to operate. It is completely safe and essential if you wish to use the touchpad. |
Adam | This file is not "dangerous" in any way shape or form. It drains processing power better used elsewhere if you can get ahold of a USB mouse as opposed to using the touchpad. Gerk Deukkler, it will NOT delete your C drive under any circumstances unless you have some whacked out worm of the same name, |
| Not dangerous, came with Packard Bell laptop - no issues ever |
Phil | Synaptics Touchpad Driver that screws Dells up. Uninstall it and get the latest drivers from the Dell website |
Garry Garrett | Consumes 99% of CPU. Need it to disable the touchpad (prefer the stick mouse on my Dell D610 and commonly accidentially hit touchpad moving my mouse, registering mouse clicks, trashing whatever I'm working on) |
| controls my touchpad and doesn't hog cpu cycles |
EK | Enables TouchPad features (middle button on ThinkPads won't work without it); should use very little CPU if working properly; unnecessary if you use USB mouse or do not use advanced features |
FoxBat | controls trackpoint scroll function, and creates dead pixels on IBM T60 laptop |
r | enables mainly the scrolling area on my touchpad's right side. uses some 0.3..1% of CPU resources. principally dispensible, but I'm used to the scroll function :-( |
Igor | in IE 7.0 causes all user-written words to be written backwards. In FF 2.0 constantly abuses the mouse so that nothing can be clicked or scrolled down. Annoying |
CyBerto | It brings the CPU at 99% |
Chris | Synaptic touchpad driver |
swift | just saying gerk is lieing |
Yeaktom | After you installed the driver, system uses 99% of cpu power. After about 10 minutes system returns to normal |
Dennis | spikes CPU to 98-99% every 10 seconds or so...drops to 0% in between...most definitely does not "delete ur c drive"... |
