stsystra.exe is another file whose compressed name tells you much about what it does: it is the SigmaTel SYStem TRAY process. It provides an icon in the system tray that allows quick access to configuration options for Sigmatel audio chips, which are integrated into many systems. This is a convenience program that is not required for regular audio function.

When running in the background, it takes up a whopping 8mb of memory and makes my PC slow. Check Task Manager (Cntrl+Alt+Del) to see how much memory it uses. Too much, IMO.
