CTCabEx.DLL not found when trying to reinstall audio drivers?

[poohbear]

hey all, my computer crashed when installing new RAM and i had to redo my bios settings. Everything works fine, but my sound card stopped working. I uninstalled it and windows automatically detected the drivers (i have an Auzentech Forte 7.1). However, when i try to install the Auzentech drivers, i keep getting "CTCabEx.DLL not found" and the installation fails. I'd much rather use the Auzentech drivers and have their audio console, so i do i fix this issue?

I used CCcleaner and deleted all the registry entries it flagged, and i also used Drivercleaner.net, but i keep getting the same message everytime.

Any help would be appreciated! .DLL errors are really tricky it seems.

uhm, that file didnt work. its for win XP, anyways these .DLL errors basically require a fresh install?

Did you try to install the RAM while the machine was running or something?

Have you looked for the DLL file on your own system?

First you must put the file in the proper location. And you must register the file using this command:

Hit Start, Run, then type in: regsvr32 CTCabEx.DLL and then hit enter.
You should reboot after.
