It is an official program by Gigabyte for tuning their motherboards. Whilst not essential to Windows, you won't get the best out of the mobo without it. Simply deleting it is also risky, since it works with the BIOS. If you don't want it, uninstal it properly.

Belongs to Siemens Gigaset WLAN USB stick. Don't think its needed since nothing happens when I kill it.

Gigabyte, EasyTune, ..GUI

GUI.exe puts an icon for gigabyte easytune onto the system tray. Double-clicking on the icon launches easytune. So GUI.exe is an easytune launcher.

Gui.exe is also the process for OMS-q Call loging program

Gigabyte. Flashes MB, unstable PC + BSOD's as result
EK

on many pcs i deal with its for centrastage
centrastage usr (further information)

seems to run in tandem with stability.dll. i found when overclocking to the max it was gui.exe & stability.dll that protected the cpu, so if you like to overclock you need them, if you use standard settings you don't. chances are that on a gygbo you will overclock so install them anyway.
