Audio Lag/Distortion with Lock up or lag Windows 7
by Rob on Nov.13, 2011, under Robs Musings
I don’t know about others, but I have had a ‘problem’ popping up for a while were i’d get audio distortion with a lot of lag in it .. and the system would almost lock.. Nothing I seemed to do would fix it.. Drivers all up to date.. everything.. it just didn’t want to go away…
So i sat down and tried to work out what would be causing so much system strain it’d cause it.. it’s not a driver problem it has to be either hardware (which I know it’s not) or software..
so first i do the normal malware etc check nope nothing.. but then i look at Mcafee and frown.. i flick it’s firewall and real time ‘scanning’ check to ‘off’.. i go in and run a game that only 20 minutes before was lagging and distorting… for 2 hrs.. and not once did i get the distoration.
So i think while I have a subscription to mcaffee.. the dopey shits need to fix their software!
