RTHDCPL.EXE Illegal System DLL Relocation

G

Guest

I just installed an auto-upgrade to a windows xp professional machine. I
receive the following message.

The system DLL user32.dll was relocated in memory. The application will not
run properly. The relocation occurred because the DLL
D:\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.

1. how do I find out who the vendor is?
2. how can I fix this problem.

Hi Sherrie51,

Have a look at this MSKB article:

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

Regards,

Thanks very much Patti. I too, had this problem and had come into the group
to see if anyone knew what it meant and what I could do to resolve it, so I
was very pleased to see your reply to Sherrie.

I just want to say though that I think it's shameful that Microsoft make you
go through the Windows Genuine Advantage routine first before you can get
the fix for the problem. I don't condone piracy in any way and I only use
genuine software, but sometimes people can be running non-genuine software
without even being aware of it, and I think it's deplorable that the "fix"
for a "fix" is only available to genuine software users.

If someone's system was working before the "security update" but not after,
then I see it as being Microsoft's update that broke the system, and the fix
required to make it work properly again should be available to *any*
affected system, genuine or not.

Thanks again,

John.

Interesting. Are you saying that one cannot use the MS fix without
installing the Window's snoop program to check your software? I paid
for the software, I own it, and I'm not going to have my PC subjected
to an anal exam by MS repeatedly to prove ad nauseum.

If I were of the tinfoil hat crowd I'd be inclined to see this as a
deliberate scheme on the part of Microsoft. I'm not. I don't think
they planned this, but they certainly are being first class pricks if
one has to let them snoop your computer in order to get the problem
*they* caused fixed. First rate PR. Write bad software and then screw
us to fix it.

Shameful? Disgusting is more like it.

Anyway, I simply went to Add/Remove and uninstalled the update. I
don't let MS do any automatic updates.

Absolutely agree with you. Ms is probably trying to disable illegal
system or practicing for some world domination T3 style.
It amazes me this kind of thing can happen. I am immediately disabling
critical updates and feel stupid for allowing it to install freely and
trusting microsoft. anyway I rather take my chances with the anonymous
intruder risk than having Microsoft destroy my system. Dang how can
things like that happen?

Shame on you critical updates team!
