It slows down my computer a lot! It seems to corrupt other files and is bugged so deleting it is the best option Tom
if this is what i think it is, it has "unmounted" and made disapear my cr-rom from eveywhere but the registry key manager aitor de lezea
I try removing it from current processes but my system goes to re-start mode whenever I do this. Rika
It is installed by Creative Labs. Although harmless, it is a waste of system resources.  link for more info Phasers
Its a useless horrible file that reappears constantly 5 minutes after i delete it . Not only that but that other cursed program , svchost , seems to acces this file on unecessary occasions . Also 4 Mb RAM spacewaister . SacreBleu
Originally named after a sound ressource, now the name is used by hackers/mentally unstable people to mask malicious codes (usually active X bugs) Merlin
its a pice of usless junk, i dont even have any creative products! even the onboard sound and controlers Andrew
I know that it causes my dvd-rw drive not to be able to burn cd's Anakin
No programs will connect to the Internet while this program is running. When I terminate it, everything works fine. Brett
It's used by creative Labs, it is harmless, if you want rear speakers to work, you need it running. Plain and simple boss
It is made by stupid nerds with no lives, so they have to mess with ours. Virus/Trojan/Worm writers are a waste of food. (see link to read a small rant about bug writers)  link for more info Tw33k3r

devldr32 is a goddamn annoying little file that makes me unable to burn anything at all. And it allows other annoying files to infect my computer, as well ! Find a way to delete it fast ! Sensenet
Downloaded Creative Drivers to unlock the full functionality of my 5.1 Platinum in XP, only to find that 3 copies of devldr32.exe were each sharing ~33% of my processor power.... Barney
Go to system, see the sound card info, ask for new drivers and let it update. Your problem is solved! Philip
I have seen this file pop up many times and wouldn't let the system shutdwn. I now know it is from Creative. I don't use rear speakers at the present so is there a way to just disable it permanently?
Disable Creative SBLive! Gameport driver (as long as you don't use Gamepads etc) and it goes away.
when I should down my comp, "devldr32 has stopped responding" pops up. Of course I make it shut the damn thing down, but thereafter nothing happens at all. Skeeter
i downloaded the new creative drivers which fixed the shutting down problem, but now there is no sound from the 2 rear speakers on my pc. Does anybody know what i can do to fix this? Demos
2 copies of this file hogging all CPU resources on startup have a SB Live 5.1.. Stops hogging resources after 5- 8 mins if just left alone while you make a drink Blair
