atkexcomsvc also keeps BIOS and other device drivers to stay up-to-date. It helps in the communication of the components. It also helps in preventing TI MSP430 from reaching to the other parts of the computer. TI MSP430 is used for low-powered embedded devices. It is a mixed-signal microcontroller family from Texas Instruments. atkexcomsvc.exe gives information about the analysis of uncommon temperature of different components in the computer system to the BIOS.

Many times people don’t delete Atksxcomsvc.exe because they use AI Suite. It supports them to play with RGB lighting and use the USB 3.0 fast charging function in Mobo.

How does atkexcomsvc Work?

Atkexcomsvc.exe gives information about the analysis of uncommon temperatures of different components installed in the computer like RAM, CPU, GPU. It equally creates PEbiosinterface32.dll . Many viewers identify PEbiosinterface32as a Trojan. It runs when the system is turned on as an administrator.

Atkexcomsvc.exe works for the temperature sensors. Atkexcomsvc.exe conveys the information about the temperature in the motherboard to the BIOS. It also spreads the temperature reports of each and every component to the BIOS.
