Constant FPS drops paired with sound stutter on litterally every game I play

Hey everyone.
So for quite a long time now I've been getting framerate drops in litterally every game I play.
MSi GE60
CPU: i7-3630QM
Graphics Card: Nvidia GeFoce GTX 660M
The FPS drops are always paired with sound stuttering, be it the game sounds or music I'm listening to. It really makes it impossible to play, I've tried dealing with it for a long time now but it's been getting on my nerves immensely lately.
Games it's happened on:
Path of Exile
League of Legends
World of Warcraft
Hearthstone (!!!!!!!!!!! I mean, really? Hearthstone? I can't run the simplest card game? :/)
I know my laptop isn't a top tier laptop but even on the very lowest settings I can't seem to run any game smoothly. And it isn't just FPS drops, it's pretty much always. Some games, like Path of Exile, it's even on a constant like 5 FPS which makes it impossible to play.
And yes, I'm running the games on the Nvidia. I've tried multiple things, I even reset my laptop to factory settings and it's still this bad.
It wasn't happening when I had just bought the laptop, as far as I can remember. It's about a year old now and it's been happening for, say, 8 months or so.
If someone has experienced/solved this issue, please try and help me out. If you need more information, ask (and tell me where/how to find it, I'm pretty bad with laptops/PCs), and I'll post it.
Thanks in advance!

Most likely the heatsinks aren't seated properly or the heatsink compound wasn't applied correctly.
This is fairly common, and I had the same problem with my GT70 0NE when I purchased it.
It's fairly easy to remove open the bottom of the laptop up, remove the heatsinks and clean and re-apply the thermal compound, and then re-seat the heatsinks. Takes maybe 30 minutes if you're slow and careful like me.
If you don't feel good about doing it, then I suggest doing an RMA.
>>How to contact MSI.<<
ALSO, as long as you don't screw anything up inside the laptop, the warranty will still be good. Don't worry about the sticker on the bottom. It's mainly there to keep people from opening it up, but you have to be able to in order to add more memory or another HDD/SSD.

IPhone 4S stopped pairing with my 2007 Mini Cooper 4S

I'm an IT guy of 15 years. I have been on several deployment teams for PDA, then Smart Phones. Recently my iPhone 4S stopped pairing with my 2007 Mini Cooper 4S. I went through the gauntlet trying to get this issue solved including but not limited to the following.
Trying to pair my wife's brand new iPhone 4S to the same Mini Cooper! (DID NOT WORK EITHER!)
Resetting network settings. (Did not work)
Wiping my iphone 4 and restoring it. (Did not work)
Called Apple support and they offered me a new phone. (A new phone is not going to fix the problem if my wife's brand new iPhone 4S will not pair either)
Successfully paired another phone (Droid) to my car.
My 15 inch MacBook Pro can see my iPhone 4S but my iPhone cannot see my Macbook Pro either!
There is a huge amount of complaints on the internet regarding the latest bluetooth update with IOS 5.1.1, people are having the same issue with bluetooth dropping pairing with their automobiles!
Apple let it slip on the phone that they are aware of this issue.
My phone worked fine until IOS update 5.1.1 I may try to restore back to an earlier IOS.
My phone worked for a few months with bluetooth and was a little flaky since getting the 4S it worked much much better with the iPhone 4. When I got the iPhone 4S that's when spotty issues with the bluetooth became noticible including the system dropping on calls and reverting back to the handset vs the speaker system. I had to apologize to several customers while on the phone. I thought I was doing something wrong, but realize now that this phone has issues with the bluetooth.
In closing I would like to simply say that if this iPhone 4S does have hardware problems then Apple is going to have a lot of ticked off people because it's a hardware problem with the design in general and they will have an iPhone recall or suit on their hands. Because I can assure you this is a bluetooth problem with every iPhone 4S, it's not a coincidence that my wife's iPhone 4S with the same 5.1.1 IOS will not pair with my car either. So for Apples sake I hope this iPhone bluetooth issue can be fixed with an update! Best of luck Apple. I'm not going to beat up on you guys because I am diehard Apple and I love your products, but please fix this issue. We have phone ordinance laws in various burbs in Cleveland and they will fine you for talking on your handset.

Well the good news is all that fell on deaf ears we are all users here not Apple
The clue is in the User Communities title
It is not the responsibility of Apple to ensure EVERY item in the world is compatible
which is why goes to great lengths to share iOS changes and hardware with any "Developer"
that is interested Including BMW/Mini and every other Auto manufacturer
Have you called in at your Mini Dealer to check if they have a Bluetooth update
If they haven't ask why not ,technology is moving forward daily
and clearly if they do not keep up you will have problems
Expect a charge it is Apple that gives free updates to their customers

Sudden jitter and fps drops in all 3D games

Hello! So I'm running Windows 7 on a MacBook Pro (13 inch, mid-2012 model) with Intel HD 4000 graphics.
Lately, I been experiencing sudden jittering in my games, particularly 3D-games-strangely, games like Bastion run just fine. The fps keeps going up and then quickly back down, ranging from 20 to all the way down to 12 or so. This is peculiar, because not long ago I was able to run games like Aion in medium to high settings, The Sims 3 in high settings, and Skyrim in low settings no problem, with no jitteriness whatsoever. The games seem to run smooth for about one minute before the fps drop occurs, with all affected games following the same pattern of fps drops-it goes from normal speed to a fast jitter, then normal speed again and repeats the cycle. It does not return to its normal fps, just keeps jumping back and forth. I have noticed that when this happens, the laptop heats up considerably and the fans spin a lot faster-this did not happen before with any of my games, so I do wonder if the best and only solution is to open up the macbook and see if the problem is internal or if there is anything else I can do. I've tried resetting the SMC to no avail-nothing seems to work. I've even re-installed Windows 7 and all of my games-nothing is working. At first I thought the problem was only exclusive to Skyrim until I opened up Aion (which I played a few days ago with no issues) and was greeted with the same drastic jumps of fps. If anyone can help me out with this and maybe offer a few suggestions, I'd love to hear them, because I'm stumped.

Spoke too soon-the problem is back again. It played nicely for about half an hour this time before it started lagging once more, both in Skyrim and Aion. Bastion is still fine, however.

How do I get Elements 13 64 bit to play .mts video files with sound as they do in Elements 11 32 bit?

I have upgraded to Elements 13 64 bit from Elements 11 32 bit and .mts video files now play without sound - they still play perfectly with sound on Elements 11 32 bit.
Is there something that needs to be changed to get Elements 13 to play them with sound or have Adope simply hooped .mts playback in Elements 13 64 bit?
I am running on Windows 8.1 Professional with Media Centre on a Dell XPS15 and have Elements 13 64 bit and Elements 11 32 bit installed.
Adobe, how do I get the support that is supposed to be available for 90 days after activation?

Hello jl666,
I have noticed the same issue having upgraded to PSE13 64bit from PSE9 on Windows 7. This has been reported to Adobe in several forum threads and I have myself tried on three occasions to get Adobe Technical Support to acknowledge or respond to this issue, so far without any success.
Despite the fact that Adobe publically claims to support this format, I was told in my last chat with their technical support that I should buy Premiere Pro and that Elements has never and does not support any video data...
Unterstützte Dateiformate | Premiere Elements, Photoshop Elements
Here is my chat transcript which I attach in the hope that someone from Adobe will take this issue seriously and work towards providing a fix.
Sanyogita: Hello. Welcome to Adobe Technical Support.
Jon Barber: .MTS files no longer play with sound. .DV files no longer play at all.
Jon Barber: Hello
Sanyogita: One moment while I look up your customer record.
Sanyogita: Please allow me a moment to search for the information.
Jon Barber: ok
Sanyogita: I can see you have PSE 13
Jon Barber: Correct and previously PSE 9 where everything worked fine...
Sanyogita: MAy I know which application are you using for >MTS files
Sanyogita: .MTS files
Jon Barber: This issue is mentioned in various threads in your forums as well, but no response or solution from adobe yet
Jon Barber: Organiser just double clicking on the file to play it. They play, but with no sound. When I play them in Windows the sound is correctly played
Sanyogita: In PSE 13 there is no provision of playing videos with sound
Sanyogita: You need premiere pro to play videos with sound
Jon Barber: Other formats are correctly played with sound.
Jon Barber: Please tell me why I have paid €80 to upgrade from PSE9 to get worse functionality then!
Jon Barber: This is nonsense!
Sanyogita: You should purchase Premiere pro for videos
Sanyogita: PSE 13 is only for photos
Jon Barber: Complete nonsense and not advertised in your documentation. Are you trying to tell me that no video files play with sound, because that is simply not true!
Sanyogita: Please purchase Premiere elements for videos
Jon Barber: Adobe sucks - I will pass your comments onto the appropriate forum threads and hope that other customers also let you know how they feel about this reduction in functionality from previous versions.
Sanyogita: previous versions of PSE never supported video application
Jon Barber: You are misinformed. These videos work fine on PSE 9 and most files still work on PSE13, just .MTS files have no sound
Sanyogita: I am sorry ,I am not an expertise in this product
Sanyogita: Let me connect you to that team
Jon Barber: Yes,I can tell that - perhaps you could pass this open bug onto someone who does
Jon Barber: Please do not close this bug - I am getting annoyed at having to reopen it
Sanyogita: Please stay online I will transfer your chat now
Jon Barber: ok thank you
info: Please wait while I transfer the chat to the appropriate group.
info: You are now chatting with Jayita Sen.
Jayita Sen: Hello. Welcome to Adobe Technical Support.
Jayita Sen: Please allow me a moment while I look into your account & verify the details.
Jon Barber: Hello
Jayita Sen: John we only support download & first installation of PSE 13
Jayita Sen: please contact the forums for further support
Jon Barber: This issue is mentioned in several forums and no solution has so far been forthcoming from Adobe.
Jon Barber: I paid €80 to upgrade from PSE9 and now have worse functionality than before and now you are telling me you cannot help. Is that what Adobe considers customer support?!
Jon Barber: By the way I did recently download and initally install PSE13 so according to your rules you should provide support.
Jayita Sen: Jon we don't support "Unexpected behaviours or how to issues"
Jayita Sen: only forums support it
Jon Barber: This is not a 'how to issue', it is a bug!
Jon Barber: It is functionality that previously worked and no longer does. I am not requiring lessons in how to use the system, just trying to do something that already worked in previous versions.
Jon Barber: Frankly I find these support responses from Adobe shocking. What I expect to hear from you is 'thank you for highlighting this issue, we will work on finding a solution and get back to you and others with the same problem in the customer forums" Not an extraordinary set of excuses for poor software.
Jayita Sen: I am sorry Jon...but forums is where you can only get the support
Jon Barber: Customers having to help customers since clearly no-one at Adobe has a clue about their own product. How many customers do you expect to have in 12 months with this service?
Jon Barber: Goodbye - please contact me if you are geniunely interested in helping your customers rather than fobbing them off with excuses.

OpenAL, Every game install that uses it overwrites it with an older version.

Hello, I have a Auzentech Forte using Daniel_K's latest Auzen pack driver set which has as far as I know the newest version of OpenAl (2.1.0.0 dated /9/2009).
Most games that I install that use OpenAl like Unreal Tournament 3 want to install their own, and it seems like it just overwrites the install folder in program files (just a Folder named OpenAl with the exe inside it) with its bundled version which is usually significantly older and then runs that (the version in add remove programs changes too so its just being overwritten it seems)
Is it common practice to just replace the file with the newest one after every game install that overwrites it and then re run (install) it's Windows 7 makes it easy by just right clicking the file and selecting "Restore Previous Version" and then running that.
Are there major differences between versions aside from age? Like is the version bundled with games a pure software version of OpenAl, and the one that comes with the Drivers a hardware implementation?
Thanks

P. the installer is in same shape how rest of OpenAL project and many other things around ...
sad to watch
Creative Labs never explained what's new in the 'drivers only' OpenAL 2..0.0 installer
versus the OpenAL website latest 2.0.7.0 installer.
and people are surprised that game and software developers are just ignoring OpenAL or leaving after supporting it in past ...

When Firefox is not minimised, there are problems with jamming sounds and FPS drops.

Hello, I have some issues, when Firefox is not minimised. When I watch movie on my BS Player or playing World of Tanks and I have not minimised Firefox (there is a window, no matter it is maximised or just window), there are visible FPS drops, but when I minimise the Firefox window, it works just fine. Also when I connect my laptop to my sound amplifier with 2.1 speakers, I can hear a jamming, hamming and whirling, also works fine, when Firefox is minimised. Is there any way to remove this? Its quite annoying. I tried to disable all addons etc., nothing worked. Thanks.

You can try to disable hardware acceleration in Firefox.
*Tools > Options > Advanced > General > Browsing: "Use hardware acceleration when available"
You need to close and restart Firefox after toggling this setting.

HT1947 The lastest app will pair with my 9.2.1 library but not control it. I refuse to use 10 as it has a feature that degrades the sound via the airport express so I no longer can use my library, any anwers? How can I get the older app back on my IOS 5 d

I have an Iphone 4 on the latest IOS 5 and latest 2.3 remote control app as I use Itunes 10 to manage the phone. Since version 10 of Itunes the airport express output has been degraded with a digital volume control so I refuse to use version 10 for my lossless audio. I specifically purchased the AE knowing that I would have pefect lossless digital audio to pass on to my high end music system (I understand that turning the volume to the maximum should have the same result but to me it just does not sound as good as with itunes 9). This step back with version 10 of Itunes has made me determined to stay with Itunes 9.2.1 Now I find that the upgraded version of the remote control app will not pair with or control a 9.2.1 library. Does anyone have a solution that does not involve using Itunes 10 to stream my audio under the control of the Iphone. I would dearly love to just go back to an older version of the iphone app but again how can that be done? Or better still have the option in Itunes 10 to have garanteed bit perfect output to airport devices as many people would really appreciate this as true lossless audio is essential for many serious music lovers.
Kind regards from a disappointed apple owner and dedicated music listener.

Strangely enough the pref file did not show up in the Preferences folder. I don't know what this means but it could be signifigant.

T520 - 42435gg / Sound stutter and slow Graphic performance with Intel Rapid Storage AHCI Driver

Hi everybody,
I have serious Problems with my 42435gg
Any time I install the Intel Storage AHCI Driver (I've tried plenty of different versions) which is suggested by System Update I experience a horrible Sound stutter and slow Graphic performance in Windows 7 64-Bit.
The funny thing in this case: If the external e-sata port is connected the problems do not occur. If the port is unused again, the stutter begins immediately.
The only thing I can do is using the Windows internal Storage Driver with which I am not able to use my DVD recorder for example.
The device was sent to lenovo for hardware testing with no result. It was sent back without any repairing.
Anybody experience on this?
Kind regards,
Daniel

Did you try the 11.5 RST beta? Load up DPClat and see if DPC conditions are favorable.
What are you using to check graphics performance?

Macbook pro will not pair with Vizio sound bar.

Macbook will not pair with Vizio sound bar. It has paired and worked fine in the past. in the menu bar at the top of the screen it says it is connected but it is not. when I open the bluetooth preferences and try to pair it says pairing failed. any help would be great. thanks.

Me too. sigh
All was well until this afternoon, when I swapped out the batteries on my trusty old Microsoft IntelliMouse Explorer for Bluetooth, which has worked flawlessly for me for a few years now. After I put new batteries in, my MBP wouldn't recognize it. I went through the Bluetooth Setup Assistant, and it "saw" the mouse and properly listed it as "Microsoft Mouse". I hit "continue", of course, and the Assistant said "Pairing with your Bluetooth mouse". It got as far as "Connection established" (and I saw the mouse appear in the Bluetooth preference pane", but then I got the dreaded red words: "The pairing attempt was unsuccessful. Make sure your mouse is in range of this computer, turned on and "discoverable." Etc., etc. I made sure of all of those things and tried again, many times, with the same failure every time. I tried different batteries, rebooted the Mac, and so on. No luck.
Figuring my mouse was dead, I went out and bought a Kensington Slimblade Bluetooth Presenter Mouse, brand new, never been paired with anything. Same problem!
Also, I can no longer get my Palm Treo 650 to sync via Bluetooth. It used to be a little flaky (often complained that the port was in use by another application), but rebooting the Treo always solved that. Now, it doesn't.
One trusty old mouse suddenly stops pairing, one brand-new one refuses to pair, smartphone won't sync any more. I haven't installed any system updates or anything else since the Microsoft mouse worked. The only weird thing going on is that I'm having massive network connectivity issues with my broadband connection (probably a flaky cable modem), and a couple of days ago I bought a new Airport Extreme a/b/g/n wireless router, which is at the other end of the house from my computer and now-defunct mice.
Very bizarre. Can the Bluetooth chip or antenna in a MacBook Pro burn out or otherwise fail?
Puzzled and frustrated,

Why is the sound from my bose mobile speakers "choppy" when paired with my Mac Book Pro but not my other apple products?

I have bose mobile speakers that use bluetooth to be paired with devices. I have successfully paired it with my ipad and iphone and the sound is phenominal. However when paired with my MacBook PRo the sound is very "choppy" and not clear. Would anyone know why this is?

Having sent my speaker to Bose to have it checked over, they returned it to me unable to recreate the problem saying it was fault free. They included the following instructions to adjust bluetooth settings to 40.
Open Terminal and use the command:
defaults write com.apple.BluetoothAudioAgent "Apple Bitpool Min (editable)" 40
Restart, turn off both devices then re-pair.
This has vastly improved the quality of sound on the speaker, although not ALWAYS perfect as have found that if I am working on the keyboard or browsing the internet at the same time as listening to music via Bose speaker there is a little jumpiness.
Further research in various forums has shown there are other settings to experiement with:
30 – Low audio quality
40 – Medium audio quality
48 – High audio quality
58 – Excellent audio quality
Hope this helps.

Iphone5s will not pair with my Bose Sound Wave Music Systme III through the wave bluetooth adapter.

My iphone5s does not pair with my Bose Wave Bluetooh Music Adapter on a Bose Wave Music System III. Has anyone solved this problem?

It is annoying the remote control keys for Bluetooth are not marked. However the Wave Bluetooth Music Adapter Owner's Guide has good instructions. Holding "5" triggers DISCOVERABLE mode. Holding "6" clears the device list, a good last resort when Discovery fails. I never remember these keystrokes.
http://worldwide.bose.com/library/assets/pdf/guides/bluetooth_music_adapter/en/o wg_en_wave_bluetooth_music_adapter.pdf
Make the Wave system Discoverable
For Wave Radio III and Wave Music System III: Press the AUX button until BLUETOOTH appears on the display. Press and hold down the Presets 5 button for 5 seconds.
For the Acoustic Wave Music System II: Press the CD button until BLUETOOTH appears on display. Press and hold down the Presets 5 button for 5 seconds.
The indicator on the music adapter flashes steadily and DISCOVERABLE flashes on the display.
Clearing the memory
Press and hold the Presets 6 button on the remote for 10 seconds until you hear a tone. The Wave system clears all devices from its memory and returns to discoverable mode.

Does your Bose SoundLink 2 pair using Bluetooth? Have you tried pairing it? If so, what happens when you pair it?
Thanks.

GE70-20D Massive fps drops. Serious problem.

Hello evryone. I have a big problem with my MSI Ge70-20D (i5-4200m 2.5ghz+ gtx760m + 8 GB ram).
The problem is a fps drops in League of Legends. Its so weird because when my game started (00:00-1;50) i have maybe 140-160 fps, but in next 2-3 min i have 90-120 fps. Okey it could be fine but, when i use my some spell i my fps drops from 100-40-50 and screen hm freeze or make a slowly for a sec. Its happening in diffrent situation. When i put first ward/when i get lvl up etc. Its so boring ,and people who play in lol know this.
The next problem is in BIG teamfightas when on screen we can see a Lot of Minions a lot of ACTIONS (spells /ultimates like malph yasuo and other champion which make a chaos on screen, my fps drops to 30-40 fps and i rly can't play with this.
I tried to find help in league of legends support but nobody helps me. I tried in nvidia forum but nobody helped me.
And sad thing is i spend a lot of money for this notebook and it :censored:ed up. My friend have a dell inspirion with gt820m (lowest gpu than me , and i5-4210m 1.7ghz cpu [also lowest than my] ) and he have constant 100-120 fps even on the screen we can see a lot of action. So tell me HOW ? How my msi ge70 is so bad.
I checked my temperature. They are good. (55-65 C) in game with cooler booster and 65-70 with no cooler boster [after a long game].
I have the latest drivers! Even i make a re-install system i still have this issues. I turn off vsync of course. Changing a setting for low/medium/high in game dont solve problem.
I have all netframework and ccc redistuable. I have a maximum perfomance in setting of power managment. My gpu can be broken?
PLEASE HELP SOMEONE.

Hi there,
Is your 8GB ram on only one pcs and run single channel? I mean two pcs of memory and let system run in dual channel can improve the performance.
And did you install game on SSD? That will also improve it.
Following is the suggestion I found from other post:
1. Memory is occupied by Killer process. Task manager shows RAM is 100% in use. And this problem can be resolved by updating new driver from MSI website. Or below link:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B1oSMeecH6wcUGlCTWFOd3lhTWc/view?usp=sharing
2. HDD is occupied by contents index or removing language packs process. We suggest user to check FAQ 740 and FAQ 646 for this two problems.
FAQ:740
When WINDOWS 8 OS is in idle mode, HDD usage often reaches 100%.
http://www.msi.com/pic/faq/10011896@2014-0415-1218-528636@faq_0000000000740_en.pdf
FAQ:646
http://www.msi.com/faq/nb-646.html
3. System didn’t use dGPU to run games. We knew that some of LOL old patches couldn’t start the game with auto select dGPU. User has to enter Nvidia control panel and assign the program to run dGPU.
4. When playing some games, game lags might happened due to the hard disk's power saving function. Also the hard disk's sounds might appeared due to the fast read/write tasks from the system. You can follow the instructions and try to turn off the power saving and acoustic management function of your hard drive to avoid game lags and try to decrease hard disk's sound.
