High Disk Usage from On Screen Display

[ArtShapiro]

I'm curious if anyone else is seeing an issue that's affecting both my T60p and my T61. They both run Win7.

The process TPOSDSVC.exe is doing several thousand IO's each refresh of the Task Manager display. Right now it's at 4.6 million IOs and showing no sign of stopping. I've just terminated task before typing this sentence, so we'll be fine for a while.

I'm not yet sure if this is a consistent problem or sporadic, but at the very least it's quite regular on both these machines.

So it can't hurt to see if anyone else is seeing this problem, and even better if someone's stumbled on a solution.

hi Art*;
Yips... thats WHY I DONT efvger use the ANY of the"tvt*" Apps ......Tvt= thinkvantage apps that was started by IBM ( when they fully owned the PC Group) and sicne Lenovo took over these ,,,, they been kinda sorta becvome HUGEST RESOURCE hogs ......

From memory - that service/process = for R&R ( rescue and recovery )
abnd not need to turned one AlWAYS - it needs to be 'reworked' to come on as when the 'backup scripts' triggers it ,,, via 'alert" .....like it used to be done in the OLDER VERSIONS of XPpro & below!!!

so ONLY ones I use = POWER MANAGER; FP READER; HOTKEY ..... rest I uninstall or make them "block/stopped" for good (if I cannot uninstall them)...i dont even use 'air bag' since that apps is pretty much redundant for SSDs....

hope this helpfull.
Cheers
