I cant get rid of this, dont know what it is etc. I havent installed anything new lately and my antivirus, spyware etc is all showing clean and good, any help would be great.

You could try updating your sound card drivers and if it is still a problem a way to get rid of the message is to delete the Cmaudio key under Run from the registry. To do this: open regedit->HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE->SOFTWARE->Microsoft->Windows->CurrentVersion->Run. Now, in this folder you should see CMAudio. Delete it. This takes care of the problem. This will not hurt your computer in any way. What this does is prevent CMAudio from loading at startup.
