Hi, Ben
Not Enough Info

Does MSCONFIG identify how the 2 processes are being started? Maybe it's
from something installed into Program Files. How about the properties of the
files, missing copyright etc. info? ==> Where are the files located at? <==

Search the registry for the .exe names, maybe find where they are being
launched from. Does the found path look ok?

You could boot into Diagnostic mode (after first booting into Safe mode and
running MSCONFIG) and then just go temporarily rename the files, then boot
again with Normal mode selected from MSCONFIG, to see what happens.
