Hello,

Does anyone know if the program "devldr32.exe" is
actually a Windows XP Professional application?
I have a feeling it is a worm or other nasty annoying
thing.
It shouldn't be a system program, and if I try to remove
it, it magically reappears after a few minutes in the
\Windows\System32 directory.
Any ideas?
Please let me know!!

Thanks very much in advance and have a great day.

Ubik

Do you have a SoundBlaster Live? I am not at my home set right now, but I
do think that is a SoundBlaster file.

Devldr.exe

(Creative Labs) Found on Windows 2000/XP. It really does
not matter how Creative call this task/service, DEVLDR,
DEVLDR16, or DEVLDR32, it is a thorough nightmare whatever
its name, and DEVLDR does not disappoint. What does this
task do - we do not know, it is such a frustrating task we
care little about what it does.
Recommendation :
"Not responding" on shutdown or problems at startup are
the most common problems associated with this task. There
are some workarounds that sometimes work. For both
Windows 2000 and XP a solution that often works is to
remove all sound items from "Control Panel \
Administrative Tools \ Device Manager", de-install any
Creative SoundBlaster software from "Add/Remove Programs",
then search your hard disk for DEVLDR.EXE and rename or
delete it, then delete/disable it in "Control Panel \
Administrative Tools \ Services", and finally download and
install the latest SoundBlaster Live software. Under
Windows XP, instead of installing the latest SoundBlaster
Live software you can opt to restart your PC, and when
prompted for the drivers for the re-detected soundcard,
use the Windows XP CD so that the XP drivers are used
rather than the Creative drivers (the same sometimes works
with Windows 2000 SP3, although no CD is required in that
case). Walking away from Creative Labs has also been
suggested to us as an option...

Either try the other posted listed here or get the latest CreativeLabs
drivers. I know that some games will not work well unless you have the
latest drivers from Creative.
