ICS.exe taking 10% CPU

[wildm]

Hello,

There has been some posts on this forum about ICS.exe taking 10% CPU and causing the fan to blow constantly.

The solution seems to be a driver download, which I do not find. When I go to the download page, it says there are no drivers for my OS.

I am on Windows 10.

Is there a fix for this on Windows 10?

Thanks!

Hello @wildm 

Please update your BIOS and all drivers from here:

If you are not lucky, step a little bit deeper into the problem and ask the microsoft community:

Hi,

Thanks for the reply. I installed everything that was there /which was a lot, hope I did not break anything..) but it did not work.

Why are you suggesting to ask the microsoft community? ICS.exe is a HP tool, right?

Thanks again!

Yes it's HP software, but it was just an idea. Combination: HP <=> Microsoft
