I have a ThinkPad with this cpu consuming process running

This file basically shows you the volume levels, both the pop up and tray icon. Ending this process will prevent the pc from drawing the image(bar, graph etc) and remove the tray icon. Not recommended if you are not sure about keyboard hot keys

Good file Provided by Lenovo Think Pad Technologies TM. It provides an onscreen display of your volume whenever you use the built in volume buttons. If you get an error every time you use a built in volume key saying that tponscr.exe has crashed but would like to have this onscreen display go to the link in this description.

Useful, shows the onscreen info for volume,display,presentation etc. No need to disable.

Think Pad Utility "Thinkpad on Screen", hence tponscr..

The tponscr.exe process is used to configure and use the hotkeys found on IBM Thinkpads. If this process is not running the Hotkeys will not work, so unless it is causing problems on your system you should leave this process running.

The ThinkVantage button will not work for Lenovo users, preventing you from entering a pre-boot Rescue and Recovery operation. Would not remove it if you own a Lenovo.
   
Also responsible the on screen display of a ThinkPad's volume level, etc
