Advertisement GaryK545 Thread Starter Joined: Apr 20, 2005 Messages: 13 Everytime I start my new computer, I get : Error loading CTMBHA.DLL A dynamic link library (DLL) initialization routine failed. The only problem I'm having is with Retrospect- an external hard drive backup program. This gives an error message, but it seems to be working. Nothing seeeeems wrong, but........ GaryK545, Dec 15, 2006 #1 Sponsor usualsuspect Joined: Jul 29, 2002 Messages: 548 Hi Gary, You have a Creative soundcard/module onboard your pc somewhere. Do you know what it is so that we can help you fix the problem? If you don't know and don't know how to find out come back to us. usualsuspect, Dec 19, 2006 #2 Drumbokas Joined: Jan 7, 2006 Messages: 8 After reading posts on how to fix my new ctmbh.dll error, identical to the one above, It seems as if people are re-installing the sound drivers to fix this. My sound seems to work fine, and I only got this error after removing the creativelicensing registry entry. Please correct me if I am wrong, but this ctmbh.dll dosent seem to have an effect on the functionability of the sound card or its associated software. If I run into problems, I'll be sure to post back. What I am looking for now is a way to remove the error without re-installing the drivers or software. -Drumbokas Drumbokas, Jul 16, 2007 #3 Drumbokas Joined: Jan 7, 2006 Messages: 8 well, I was wrong. The CTMBHA dll appearently does do something besides nag you to register (if it even does that) . My sounds seems to be working ok, but some of the Creative features are disabled. The Creative speaker taskbar icon will no longer bring up the fancy version of volume control and instead gives me this error: Surround Mixer The audio device supported by this application is not detected. The application will exit The other Creative features are no longer functional either, such as EAX Settings, Speaker Settings, Graphic Equalizer, and the before mentioned Surround Mixer(fancy volume control). I do not often use these features, but the errors are annoying so I guess I will try to re-install I suppose I should have played it safe and made a copy of my registry before editing it, doh! Any thoughts and comments are appreciated, -Drumbokas Drumbokas, Jul 16, 2007 #4 Drumbokas Joined: Jan 7, 2006 Messages: 8 After

As you need to uninstall all of the Creative/Sigmatel and Sound Blaster entries, and once they have been removed you will need to install the new drivers in the correct order as a simple 'scan for hardware changes' w
control the audio on your motherboard. The ctmbha.dll file is located in the C:\Windows\System32 folder. The known sizes of this file are 1,345,520, 1,355,042, 1,355,938, 1,355,468 and 1,355,181 bytes. The process loads automatically at system startup. The entry for this file is added at the following location in the registry: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run Error Message You may encounter the following error message related to this process at system startup: “Error loading ctmbha.dll. A dynamic link library (DLL) initiation routine failed.” To fix this error message, perform the following steps: Double-click the My Computer icon on the Desktop and navigate to the C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Creative Labs\Licenses folder. Now, locate B3420000.dat file and rename it to B3420000.dat.old. Next, reinstall the Creative Labs software. Finally, restart your computer. At times, the ctmbha.dll loading error at system startup is followed by the following error message: “Invalid access to memory location” You can correct this error by first uninstalling the Audigy sound blaster SW and then reinstalling it. Upgrading your Audigy sound blaster software to version 10.0 should also repair the error. Many times DLL errors appear due to driver problems. For instance, you may receive the ctmbha.dll error in case the driver files of Creative Audigy sound cards are outdated or corrupt. You can prevent such a scenario from arising by regularly updating the driver of your sound card and other hardware components. Alternately, you can use the help of driver scanner tools, such as Driver Finder, which automatically update your drivers as and when required. You can also prevent many DLL errors from occurring by taking due care while performing installation and uninstallation activities. When you install a new program or an application, ensure that the current version of a DLL file is not overwritten with a previous version. Similarly, ensure that no shared DLL file is deleted when you uninstall any program or application. Ctmbha.dll errors may also occur due to malware infections. Often, malicious programs, such as virus, worm, Trojan, adware, and spyware disguise themselves as genuine DLL files, causing frequent DLL errors. That is why it is important that you regularly run entire system scans, using advanced antivirus and antispyware tools. Furthermore, keep your protective gear up-do-date with the latest virus definitions and security update
