Do you really make use of the Realtec HD Audio Control Panel?
In case you don't, disabling the start of that application via
Start -> Run -> msconfig -> System Start may be an acceptable
workaround.

How can I see/test if I really use the realtec HD Audio Control Panel?
I mean, all functions of the 'normal' Audio Control Panel seem to be working
normally ... (?)

Disable it via msconfig and reboot Windows. If you don't miss anything,
you aren't using it ;-)

Retry accessing the side again in a few minutes.

is the side you mean, do you? It requires a WGA check now, while
it hasn't some minutes/hours ago. That may be the cause for the
side not beeing available temporarily.

Thank you, All, for a very helpful string of posts. This morning when I
encountered update-from-hell No. KB925902, I had no idea what to do to fix
the consequences. I know exactly what the Realtek HD Audio control Panel does
-- and I didn't want to lose it.

Anyone who listens to music while working at the computer must appreciate
having these controls, and I wasn't going to give it up without a fight.

Thanks especially to you, Freudi, for telling how to uninstall the update
and explaining why we really need it and how easy it is to find the hotfix
and install it first, then reinstall the update.

How nice that you even provided the DownloadCenter link:

"KB935448 is now available via DownloadCenter for public download too.

YW, but I never ever advised anyone to uninstall KB925902 prior the
installation of KB935448. There's no need to nor does it make sense.
What _may_ (have) make (made) sense, is (was) to disable the error
message presenting application _before_ KB935448 has been installed,
especially, if it has been the rthcpl.exe presenting an error message
soon after Windows restarts.

Freudi

this is what I see and every support is telling me to pay to fix this problem. Why do I have to pay when my computer is not even 6 month old and I purchase this labtop for$899.99 and some change.

please advise ASAP!!!!!!!!! Need my labtop for school.

RTHDCPL.EXE - Illegal System DLL Reloation

The Ssystem 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.

Rita,

I really am not the most computer-knowlegeable person to be offering advice
-- but since this thread is so far down the line it may be a long time before
others open it, here goes.

To get rid of the ILLEGAL SYSTEM DLL RELOCATION message, I followed the
advice given on this board to install two things: Security Update KB925902
(see Windows Update for this) AND Hotfix KB935448. You need both.

Here's a link for the hotfix:

KB935448 is available via DownloadCenter for public download.

This may fix your problem -- or not! But try it. You can always uninstall if
the installations don't work.

Cheers,
dailyplanet
