Flight sim X crashed the computer when the "fly now" button was pressed. Removing ATK keyboard services from the services tab on msconfig, cleared the fault.

I have ASUS Motherboard and Video Card, but it uses up processor ressources, sometimes uses up to 99% and it slows the pc down ALOT! Even the moving stars screen saver is slow!

When I play the game ,,Theatre of War,, ... ATKKBService.exe starts using the CPU massivley.. and therefore the game cannot work as it should... its very laggy... and its not the hardware.

This file caused windows to crash with a blue screen error "IRQ_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL STOP: 0x0000000A". Deleted the file and everything was back to normal

Have an ASUS A8R-MVP and an ASUS EAX1950PRO so it must be part of an ASUS driver

I disabled the ATK keyboard service in the system configuration utility because I received a stop error on a blue screen each time I switched users.
