RTHDCPL.EXE - Illegal System DLL Relocation

The system DLL user32.dll was relocated in memory. The application will not
run properly. The relocation occurred because the DLL
C:\WINDOWS\system32\HHCTRL.OCX occupied an address range reserved for
Windows system DLLs. The vendor supplying the DLL should be contacted for a
new DLL.


If you have read that immediatly after installing and rebooting your
computer from the latest Microsoft Security fix, all you have to do is go to
your Control Panel, then to Add/Remove Programs, make sure updates is
checked and uninstall the fix, the problem will go away but it does leave
the need for a security fix still open.

This is related directly to Microsofts development regarding the "never
ending shell crash" in all Microsoft Windows systems. That was spurred on
by the discovery that an animated cursor could leave your Windows operating
system open to hackers.

You don't need to uninstall the Windows Update patch. You just need to
install the patch that is linked from the following MS KB article:

"The Realtek HD Audio Control Panel may not start, and you receive an
error message when you start the computer: "Rthdcpl.exe - Illegal System
DLL Relocation"

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/935448/

"This problem may occur after you install security update 925902
(MS07-017)and security update 928843 (MS07-008). The Hhctrl.ocx file
that is included in security update 928843 and the User32.dll file that
is included in security update 925902 have conflicting base addresses.
This problem occurs if the program loads the Hhctrl.ocx file before it
loads the User32.dll file."
