Hi all,
Once again, tech support has failed and I have to ask the real genius's for help.
I have had no problems with my computer for a long time. I use it mainly for audio editing.
Recently, my audio starting clicking and the CPU was maxxing out at the same time as the clicks. I had some urgent work to do so I simply reinstalled everything and it started working again... for a while.
But today, it started again.
Any audio noise crackles... or if I do get a stretch where it plays ok, it starts crackling the moment I do anything else, such as opening the web browser, or clicking a menu bar in any software, and the CPU meter goes off the scale.
I have not installed anything at the same time as it started to happen. But, one other symptom did occur at the same time, which is that my computer now takes a long time to boot up, it spends a few minutes in an entirely blank screen before finally going to my windows desktop.
I have all the latest drivers for my hardware. Any help would be greatly appreciated, I really don't want to reinstall
My system specs are:
Windows XP pro sp3
X86 Family 15 model 67 stepping 2 authentic AMD ~2598 <--(I'm sure it didn't say all this before?)
MAudio delta 44 soundcard
Nvidia Geforce 7600 GT
2048 MB RAM
Thanks in advance.
