"the process ps2.exe is used to allow multimedia keys on
Hewlett Packard keyboards to function correctly. if you stop this
process all of the 'normal' keys on the keyboard should still
function, but the multimedia keys will not. only stop this process
if it is causing instability to your system. ps2.exe is flagged as
a system process and does not appear to be a security risk."
try removing any entries with "ps2.exe" from your system startup,
from either:
1. Start Menu/Programs/Startup,
2. run "msconfig" and unchecking references to "ps2.exe".
restart the com. only if problem still persists,
3. delete any such entries from
[HKLM|HCU]/Software/Microsoft/Windows/CurrentControlSet/Run/ in the
registry.
all else fails, come here again and report, or go IT/Tech Help
forum.
note that you will lose functionality of those special buttons on
your special HP keyboard. if you're already using a normal
keyboard, then good, turn off ps2.exe.
