Hello gain,
I wanted to add that Windows standard clicks and sounds also show the same behavoir. I also did a thorough process checking with Process Explorer, nothing suspicious found, except 'Interrupts' which sometimes takes up to 90% of cpu usage. I don't know if this is normal or not. System is reported to be virus-free using updated Norton 2004.
I appreciate any comment.
Thanks.
Dear all,
I've got a problem with my sound card and wondered if you could spare a moment and help me out.
The problem is that while playing a music or a video clip, the sound frequently freezes for a second, i.e. still playing that particular tone, and then it continues normally. Meanwhile the CPU usage shots up.
If I execute sth while playing, this happens more frequently.
My system:
Sony VAIO laptop VGN-FS285H - Pentium M Centrino 1.73 GHz - Realtek High Def. Sound card -WinXP-Pro-SP2
I have installed/reinstalled:
- Microsoft UAA Bus Driver for high Definition Audio (Tried both
KB835221 and the newer KB888111)
- Realtek High Definition Audio Driver
- Latest DirectX
But the problem still persists. Any ideas?
Many thanks in advance for taking the time to response.
Kind Regards,
Masood
PS: I also have WinXP-Home and FC5 installed in my computer; both of them are OK.
