Bart,

Thank you for using the Dell Community Forum.

You should really contact the vendor of your software to find this answer.  I suggest doing a search on the Internet for this rogue file or reinstalling the software application.

Thanks for your answer, but the software-faq tells me to ask the hardware-vendor.

Is there any way to get that dll for the TI-combo-carddrive? Or is there an other dll that replaces the ct32.dll? The dll should belong to the hardware driver.

Geepers.  Do you read the post before telling the users to go somewhere else for support from Dell for a product made by dell installed in a dell?




Its  DELL D800 and he needs SMARTCARD DRIVERS FOR A DELL FROM DELL!!






Release Title: Chip Set: Texas Instruments PCI 7510/4510 Cardbus Controller with SmartCard, Driver, Windows 2000, Windows XP, Multi Language, Latitude D400, D800, Precision M60, v.1.0.8.8, A01 
Download Hints:





R56452.EXE 3.49 MB




ftp://ftp.dell.com/chipset/R56452.EXE




Smartcard Readers need drivers.

http://www.txsystems.com/chipdrive_downloads.html

http://www.towitoko.de/hpeng/download_free.htm

http://files.towitoko.de/ftp/pcmcia217.zip

The executables should run at least under Windows XP and Windows98. Under this systems the CTAPI libraries have other names than under Unix-like systems. Towitoko drivers are:
"c:\windows\ct32.dll"
"c:\windows\cttwkw32.dll"
This is the path you should give as "driver" in the "[term]" section of your configuration file.
configure sets path and name of the global configuration file according to the target system: Windows  "c:\windows\libchipcard.ini" 




The list may look something like this:

CT32.DLL
CT.DLL
CTAPIW16.DLL
CTAPIW32.DLL
CTTWKW16.DLL
CTTWKW32.DLL
GEN_TWK.DLL
SCARDS32.DLL
SCARD.DLL
SCARD.ERR
SCARDS32.EXE
SCARDSRV.EXE
SCDLL32.DLL
SCDRVDLL.DLL
SCP_NT.DLL
SCP_TWK.DLL
TDEV32.DLL
TDEV.DLL

Thank you SpeedStep, your help is very much appreciated! The smartcard-reader seems to be working just fine so the driver must be installed correctly. Unfortunately even in the driver-update there doesn´t appear a single dll-file. I´ve already tried to configure my homebanking-software to use any of the dlls in windows / windows system32 that might have something to do with the smartcard but it didn´t work out.

In my whole system there´s no ct32.dll. Do you have any idea for which dll I should try looking for? Maybe TI just names it different.

So far I´m pretty much disappointed of the internal smartcard-reader. And I´m simply not willing to install my old towitoko drive on my D800.

Thanks in advance!

I´m learning more and more about smartcard-drives trying get my homebanking-software running. Now I found out, that the drive needs to be CT-API compatible.

So my question to dell support is:

a) is the Texas Instruments smartcard-drive in my latitude CT-API compliant and if so

b) how are the dll-Files named?

Thanks in advance
Bart S.

you didnt download the towikto drivers
Towitoko drivers are:
"c:\windows\ct32.dll"
"c:\windows\cttwkw32.dll"

Smartcard Readers need drivers.

SpeedStep, are you sure it would be a good idea to install towitoko drivers? Do they work with my Texas Instruments combo-chipdrive? I thought that these drivers were hardware-specific...

Although I do have an external towitoko-drive I still want to use the internal TI-drive of my D800.

Please confirm me your advice as I´m not quite sure if installing towitoko drivers wouldn´t harm the TI-installation.

TIA
Bart S.

Now I installed the towitoko-driver but as expected they didn´t even recognize the internal chipdrive from Texas Instruments.

Hello BobT,

this will definately be my last try to get this simple piece of information from you and then I won´t bother you or any other dell support-person again, as well as I won´t buy any other dell product because of this annoying lack of service:

Is the smartcard-reader (TI ComboPC-Card bus / smartcard) in my D800 CT-API / HBCI-comliant or not? If it is: where can I get the needed dll´s (because they are not in the driver-package in the support section)?

TIA
Bart S.

Thank you for using the Dell Community Forum.

The specifications for the card slot are:

  • Support 3v and 5v cards
  • Smart Card interface speeds from 9600 bauds to 115,200 bauds
  • WHQL certified for Microsoft PS/SC
  • EMV Level 1 certified

The overall answer to your question is no.

Latest info on that topic:

The drive is definately HBCI-compliant. With a new version of the software I use it doesn´t have to be CT-API-compliant anymore. The pc/sc-standard is enough. Everything works just fine. :-)

Hi Bart,

i followed your posting and i´m surprised that dell will give such bad answers....

You wrote that your system will work now after installing the latest version of the "software".

Which software do you mean?

I´m going to buy a new homebanking software and i don´t know if the card reader in the D800 will work for me for hbci.

So you wrote that it will work.

Does it work with a new driver software for the reader or do you mean it will work with the latest version of the homebanking software?

 

Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi!

I use Starmoney (german software) V.4 for homebanking. V.3 still needed a ctapi-driver whilst V.4 works just fine without.
