Acer Aspire 5733Z, ETD Control Center high CPU usage 50% ( ELAN Touchpad )

Ambamac

HELP!  I have an acer Aspire 5733Z and all of a sudden I am having an issue with the ETD Control Center (ETDCtrl.exe) using and average of 50% CPU usage.  

 

It's causing my laptop to lockup and go slow.

 

This just started today and came out of nowhere, I've never had an issue before.  

 

Here's the list of recent changes and/or updates I've made.  But they were 3 days ago: 

• Norton Security Suite
• Java 7 update 71
• Acer System Information 

I can't seem to find anything about this.

 

Thank You in advance for your help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Uninstall Norton, it's an heavy antivirus and have you checked if any drivers update is available for your touchpad?
