| New Machine Sound Stutters
I bought a HP Machine with a phenom quad 9500 with a 400 gig hard drive, 3 gigs RAM ang nvidia 8500 GT video card. It has Vista. After running awhile I have trouble with audio stuttering watching video and also just playing tunes on mediaplayer. There is no CPU spike and I disabled allthe enhancement options in the properties setup.
I read online this is common.The audio is realtek high definition.
Some say it is drivers and some say it is Vista. Anyone else have this problem and founda fix? |

What exactly are you doing when the problem occurs? Is this with a single file, a single type of file, or all files?

| It can be any type of file. I can be surfing and watch youtbe--and I'll get that stutter--or even the sound will slow down along with stuttering.
It seems to happen more if I happen to open another tab in the browser or access a folder while sound is playing. Almost like I am working the CPU too hard but there is no usage to speak of----plus it is a Quad core. |

Did you have this problem from the moment you first started using the computer? (i.e. you didn't install/modify anything)
Try any of the following:
-uninstall the realtek driver and see what happens when Vista installs its own
-install all updates for Vista from Windows Update
-check HP's website for updated drivers
-check HP's support forums to see if your model/issue is mentioned |
