DriverCoreSvc.exe at 50% CPU usage

From time to time my system becomes slower then usual, I check and see why: DriverCoreSvc.exe is at about 50% CPU usage. Tried to restart the service - comes back to 47-50% again.
Any ideas?

Ray:
It seems I narrowed down the condition when the service jumps high - it happens when nothing is enabled in Displays tab in GX Management Console. When I select Media Center or Clock or CPU Load, the CPU usage goes down to the minimum 00-01. I am not sure now what was my lowest CPU with nothing selected before, but today it is constantly between 47 to 50% with nothing selected.
Since I use MediaPortal which takes care of everything, I am not quite interested in any of your default selections, but zero selection overloads my CPU.
Can you verify what is the lowest CPU load with nothing selected on your PC?

Did you use the traybar app to disable output or did you just stop the lcdinfo.exe process?

Although I don't like the traybar approach (I still don't understand why can't you just make a direct configuration program), I stay legal and I use your traybar to enable/disable options.
As you can see from the attached picture, lcdinfo is still running.
