I have a process, PQV2iSvc.exe, which is eating >50% of my CPU cycles and is
WAY up in the page fault and i/o reads. I have no clue as to what it might
be but don't know if I can just terminate the process.

If anyone KNOWS, please advise me.

It is your Drive Imaging software (Power Quest).

FWIW, I simply entered "PQV2iSvc.exe" in the search box on goole and had an
answer in 5 seconds. You could have done the same.

It belongs to PowerQuest.
 
More information: I'm running XP and have run Spybot Search and Destroy,
Ad-Aware SE, and Norton's Antivirus with no significant alarms. Search
seems to indicate that that file is part of Norton's Ghost but I'm not
running it currently. Again, HELP!

You have Ghost 9 on your computer. After you create an image, it takes a
while for the process to release it's resources. It will usually clear in
about 2-3 minutes.

Just like what Richard mentioned.
