Ok first...
Windows XP SP2
AMD Athlon 2800+
768 mb ram
C-Media Onboard audio
Radeon 9550
I have a sound stuttering problem in games...some games dont stutter and some do... I've had thise problem for about 6 months and I've tried everything i can possibly think of.
I've tried different sound/video cards, updated all drivers, bought a new processor and motherboard, changed priority of codecs, disabled codecs, lowered hardware acceleration level, etc.
I came to the conclusion that it was a motherboard issue, so I purchased a brand new motherboard and processor and I still have the same problem. It's interfering with fps, like when a certain sound plays the fps drops. also some games just stutter the whole way through and cause crappy fps.
I recently purchased FarCry and the sound was skipping, so I went into audio options and turned on compatible mode (this option bypasses your sound drivers and uses the games) and the sound didnt stutter anymore. So now I'm thinking its a driver problem, but I dont know exactly what. I'm thinking it might be an old driver or something in there but i cant find any.
This has been driving me nuts, I've spent day after day trying different things to fix this and nothing seems to work. HELP!
