CPQDFWAG.EXE hogging all processing speed

I have an older compaq armada and need all the processor available, but I have notice that the CPQDFWAG.EXE is utilizing75-90% of the available and sometimes 100%. When I hit end process it gives me an access denied- you dont have permission. I am the administrator and have administrative privileges. Tried deleting the file out of winnt on c: and advises that it is in use. Please help.

See this link for information on the process while I find out a way to disable it.

That belongs to Compaq Diagnostics Utility. See if you can find such a service and disable it.
