Micro sound breaks/interrupts on Windows 7
- by cand
Hello all,
I've been experiencing strange behavior recently. When listening to mp3 or watching movie or whatever that uses sound, I get micro breaks in sound. It's like it hangs or cuts a fragment for about 0.5s. When I start OS, it's ok, but as time passes it gets worse, to the extent that music is unlistenable being interrupted every 2 seconds.
I haven't found any relevance between this behavior and hardware usage, I don't think it's directly related to HDD (or it might be but with significant delay).
I have updated soundcard drivers and it didn't help a lot.
My system is Windows 7, computer is simple HP laptop, nx7300-Ru374ES with WD Caviar Scorpio Blue hard drive inside and integrated soundcard on it (I can check the model later if it's important).
Did anybody encounter such problem ? Maybe it's a common thing on Windows 7 or someone knows how to solve it?
Thanks in advance.
